Committed to Veterans
Unfortunately, sometimes our nation's heroes die with no known next-of-kin or insufficient resources. While VA's goal is to help Veterans and their loved ones before they die or become indigent, sometimes Veterans outlive both their families and their financial means. Sometimes too, Veterans never seek the help they earned from the VA, so we don't know they are out there. As hard as the VA works to avoid this, and as difficult as it is to accept, at least now we can help ensure that Veterans who pass are given the dignified burials they deserve.
If death has occurred:
- Have facility where death occurred or hospice nurse call 1-817-319-3588 to request our care team take your loved one into our personal care.
- Bring to the appointment your loved one's social security card, driver's license and separation papers (DD-214) from the military.
- We will help plan the final arrangements of your loved one with respect and compassion they deserve.
What all veterans should know
