We rely very heavily on the funeral homes, because they are the ones who are meeting with the families. One of the standard questions is whether the person is a veteran. If they have integrity, then they will advise the family of what benefits are available to them through the VA if the person is a veteran. Most of them do, as far as we know, and we work closely with them. We rely on them. They understand our procedures and know who to call and how to make things happen quickly. They really are our partners.
