Assistance Applying for VA Disability Benefits
One of our most important functions is helping veterans apply for federal disability benefits and survivors apply for survivor benefits. To learn more about the resources available, visit the Veteran Services Director page on VA Disability Benefits.
Vermont Veterans Memorial Cemetery
Located in Randolph Center, our cemetery performs more burials a year than any other cemetery in the state. It is a beautiful location that honors the service of our veterans by providing them perpetual recognition. The cemetery isn't just for veterans, though, as veteran's spouses and some dependents are also eligible for burial.
