Retired Flag Program

Retiring Worn Flags With Dignity

What happens to a flag when the trials of time have worn it down? Oliver’s Funeral Home feels the old flag deserves to be treated respectfully. Once a year, on National Flag Day, February 15th, retired flags are laid to rest during a ceremony at Grande Prairie Cemetery. Flags can be dropped off at Oliver’s year-round.
