Honoring Our Heroes ~ A Gift for Our Veterans

At Crawford / Ray Funeral Home, we are deeply grateful for the service and sacrifice of our nation's veterans.

As a gesture of our appreciation, we are offering a FREE Veteran Information Booklet. A guide where veterans and their families can record important, personal, military, and family information that may be needed at a later time.

We invite all veterans to stop by our office or call to receive their complimentary copy. It's our way of saying thank you for your service and sacrifice.
