Home of the Brave Funeral Program

Some lives are lived in quiet devotion — to country, to family, to something bigger than themselves.

The Home of the Brave funeral program was made to honor exactly that kind of life. Set against a deep navy backdrop with a gracefully standing American flag and warm gold lettering, this order of service carries both strength and tenderness — a fitting tribute for a veteran, a soldier, or anyone whose patriotism defined who they were. Fully editable in Canva and available as an Canva template, it lets your family create a dignified bereavement keepsake without any design experience. A timeless tribute for all who shared in their story.

For the ones who served quietly, loved fiercely, and left a legacy worth honoring.

Order today — access your template and personalize it at your own pace. No design experience needed.

✨ Design Details

Patriotic Flag Funeral Program Template — Navy, Gold & American Flag

A deep navy background paired with warm gold accents strikes a tone that feels both proud and peaceful — the kind of quiet dignity that honors a life of service. A gracefully standing American flag rests beside the portrait, while elegant gold serif lettering and flowing script give the name the reverence it deserves. Three framed photo openings along the side let your family tell more of their story — the person behind the service, in and out of uniform. The back page features the original poem The Woman, the Veteran alongside a fully editable order of service — keep the poem as written, or replace it with a reading, a verse, or words of your own. Coordinates beautifully with the Home of the Brave prayer card, memorial bookmark, thank you card, and guest book.

✨ Printing Tips

• Laser: Laser printers produce professional-quality results with sharp detail and accurate color — 24–28 lb paper works beautifully.
• Inkjet: For inkjet printers, use heavy coated matte or semi-gloss paper (28 lb or heavier) at your printer's highest quality setting for best results.
• White border note: Standard home and print shop printers are not full-bleed printers — your program will print with a small white border around the edges. This is normal and expected. Simply trim the edges after printing for a clean, finished look.
• Print shop: Local print shops like FedEx, Staples, and The UPS Store can print same-day. Tabloid (11" × 17") folds to a standard 8.5" × 11" booklet. Standard (8.5" × 11") folds to a 5.5" × 8.5" booklet — a classic half-fold program size.
