The right to design one's funeral. by Milan Sundaresan, Jun 19, 2008 (1:21am)
Earning the support of the ICCFA and a majority of veterans’ organizations, H.R. 1273 calls for an amendment of title 38, United States Code. The change would provide a veteran more freedom to determine the terms of his or her funeral- neither a headstone/marker nor a plot will be furnished by the government allowing the individual to pick for him or herself.
