Retire your old, tattered American flags with honor at Twiford Funeral Homes - OBX Today

With the 4th of July spirit filling the air, many of us are sprucing up our homes and getting those flags ready to fly high. If you’re swapping out your old flag for a new one this year, let’s make sure those worn and weathered stars and stripes are retired with the honor they deserve.

You can drop off your old, torn, and tattered flags at Twiford Funeral Homes Outer Banks and Elizabeth City locations, or any of the local places listed below. But there’s something extra special about the way Twiford does things… They honor our Veterans by retiring American flags in a truly respectful way – by cremating them with a Veteran who has chosen cremation. It’s a beautiful tribute to both our flag and the brave souls who’ve served our country.

So, before you get fully swept up in the 4th of July festivities, take a moment to give back to those who’ve given so much for us. Drop your flag off, and then celebrate knowing you’ve done a good deed.
