    Quick update after having spoke with the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s office.


    James (Jim) W.Freeman passed on June 18th, 2021 and his next of kin has been notified. Beyond that, the family is responsible for obituaries, services, and disposition of the remains. The ME office is unable to release contact information for the family. There is no recorded or scheduled burial at any of the national cemeteries that would match; this could be for various reasons.

    My FIL’s brother passed away in SA back in February. His burial had to be scheduled for March because the national cemetery in the area was backed up for military honor funerals. My FIL passed away on March 1st and was buried in Louisiana four days before his brother in TX.

    Any idea if the family has actually made arrangements? If they haven't - or aren't - he is entitled to a VA funeral.

    Q1: No idea; VA funeral: True, which is why I checked (and will continue to check) the National Cemetery Administration’s burial schedule.

    [mention]toddnjoyce [/mention] and [mention]Eli [/mention]

    That is why I mentioned this above. The VA funerals in the SA area have been backed up.

    My FIL also had military honors, but his were done by the VFW and not in a national cemetery.

    I think he added some spice to the forum.

    Some spices are terrible on their own.
    But when combined with others and taken as a whole, it just makes things better.

    If everyone was 100% the same, this place would be a bit boring. Forums need folks who regularly participate, and he will be missed.

    I liked what he brought to this place.
    That doesn’t mean I agree or disagree with everything he posted, but I can say that about virtually anyone here.

    I could tell that he loved sharing his experiences with us.

    And I’m happy to share the last convo I had with him. (Sorry if some of y’all didn’t agree with me encouraging him)

    RIP

    There are many here, even the ones I have had words with, that if they leave the mortal plane before myself I will miss. I may not see eye to eye with everyone, but I do support your right to speak out and to be yourself, it does not mean that I will not let you know what I think if you are a moron. Hell, I even enjoy when someone tells me I am wrong, especially when I am, I may be pissed at first, but hey I do not know everything, and information does change as knowledge grows. I'll get over it.

    When I had a question via PM, he was always helpful and, when the information he imparted led me in search of expanding my knowledge, he always led me in the right direction.
