About Webpage & Author

There were many people in the human/social services fields, some with masters degrees & some even with doctorates, who spent time & effort to help me and many would also make a point to educate me about the cultural bias, stigma, etc. directed at people on assistance programs. I do what I do in their honor.

Dear Scott ...:

We have reviewed your request and supporting documentation for a determination of eligibility for burial in a Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) national cemetery in advance of need. We find that, as of the date of this letter, you are eligible for burial in a VA national cemetery.

Eligibility criteria for burial in a VA national cemetery are stated in section 2402 of Title 38 United States Code (U.S.C.), Persons eligible for interment in national cemeteries. This finding of pre-need burial eligibility does not reserve or guarantee a gravesite in a particular VA national cemetery. Burial benefits in a VA national cemetery include opening and closing of the grave, perpetual care, and a government-furnished headstone or marker, at no cost to your family.

VA will save your pre-need claim form, supporting documentation, and this decision letter in a recallable system to expedite your burial arrangements at your time of need. We encourage you to retain this information along with your other important papers. We also encourage you to discuss your burial wishes and arrangements with your family members or authorized representatives. At your time of death, should your family or personal representative request burial in a VA national cemetery, VA will confirm this finding of pre-need eligibility based on the laws in effect at that time.

I hope this information is helpful in planning for your future burial needs. Thank you for your interest in our VA national cemeteries.

Sincerely Yours,

National Cemetery Scheduling Office Director

"We want and are entitled to the basic rights and opportunities of American citizens: The right to earn a living at work for which we are fitted by training and ability; equal opportunities in education, health, recreation, and similar public services; the right to vote; equality before the law; some of the same courtesy and good manners that we ourselves bring to all human relations."
~ (Dr.) Martin Luther King, Jr. from August 6, 1946 letter to editor of Atlanta newspaper.


The biggest danger to our rights today is not from government acting against the will of the majority
but from government which has become the mere instrument of this majority...
Wrong will be done as much by an all-powerful people as by an all-powerful prince.
~ James Madison


Class conflict is another concept which upsets the oppressors, since they do not wish to consider themselves an oppressive class. Unable to deny, try as they may, the existence of social classes, they preach the need for understanding and harmony between those who buy and those who are obliged to sell their labor. However, the unconcealable antagonism which exists between the two classes makes this "harmony" impossible. ~ Paulo Freire

One of my more recent projects was converting scanned magazine articles to digital text and a Colorado history magazine (printed in 1973) included an article about Junius R. Lewis. There was an injustice committed against him that entailed gender issues as well as the racism that he had to contend with. It’s a fascinating story! (The article includes references so converting it to EPUB3 with audio reader capability is an aspect that needs work.)


Note: I use a template for my pages and some things I’ll leave in from other sites of mine. Below is a remnant from one.

I continued to do further research & came across a company profile of Missionrock Residential that reflects a Revenue amount of $666 million. (I kid you not!) Please check back for updates.


I have another website at erfahren.info and thought I'd use this for some of my other articles. Please check back for updates.
