National Cemetery Administration News--They buried my mother but they did not let me know!



National Cemetery Administration News:


To:  Randy Heard, Director at Prescott National Cemetery in Arizona and Bradley Phillips, Regional Director


 Let's start with a very simple, very basic question.


Why wasn't I notified about my mother's service?

That is a reasonable question.

Get back to me with the answer.

Please place this in the file that I am the daughter of Frances Barclay and I am asking the question of why I was not notified about my mother's service.

Would that not be something that would go in the file?


My complaint with Veterans Affairs and The NCA




I am making a formal complaint.

How do I properly make this complaint?

Get back to me on this with an answer.

Let me know if you think it is reasonable for me to ask this question and let me know if you think this is a complaint that should go in the file.

Mr. Phillips, please forward this complaint to Ronald Walters and Matthew Quinn.


Please tell me how to make a formal complaint about this one incident.

Thank you for your time,

When should I expect your answer to this question?

My Mother Joined The WAVES in 1943...

 My mother joined the WAVES in 1943. 


She was very proud of her assignment in Hawaii. 


Unfortunately, for mother, the VA has hijacked her ashes and placed her in AZ at The National Cemetery in Prescott. 


She wanted to be by her parents in San Diego at Greenwood where she already owned her plot. 


One of the NCA policies is to always be courteous. 


It would be nice if they answered my questions. 


They buried her on false statements given by my cousin. 


They do not want to admit they acted on false statements. 


The question is why? 


Most adults want to get to the truth of a situation but not the VA or NCA. 


Here is my story https://theronnierepublic.blogspot.com/.../national... 


Thank you for reading. Tell me if you have any tips for solving this thing.

The Gift of Chatting

 Have you ever wanted someone to talk to and there was absolutely no one available...


The gift of chatting--some folks have it.


Given the gift yesterday.


Straight up out the door for the morning dog walk a lovely young man complemented my beautiful dog.  Yes, he is a gorgeous juvenille delinquent.  He knew every thing about dogs growing up on a farm and particularly dogs that want to chase everything.  His dog training tips were priceless.  Took time to show me his artwork.  Dog training takes patience.


The lady at the cemetery.


Always trying to make sense of my cousin hijacking my mother's ashes and the mystery of how to get the elusive court order an extremely kind lady at the Heritage Cemetery in Dewey took time to tell me that once folks have passed they are not really interested in controversy.  This situation comes up more often than people realize.  The death situation brings out the extremes of behavior in the loved oncs left behind.


Not everything that is done in the final placement business is on the up and up.  I loved her words.  Did she know my mother?


Samena Squares in Kirkland--The Square Dance Group.


They not only square dance but go to many social events together.  "We are always doing something, not just square dancing."  she really enjoyed the group and always encourages other to actually join the group in addition to attending their dances.  Seriously, it was the best recomendation to join something.


Thank you, for giving me the gift of conversation...and all in one day.


Shout out and thank you to Karyl, the lovely lady at the Heritage Cemetery in Dewey, Arizona.

New Under Secretary for Memorial Affairs Matthew Quinn

What do we do when the National Cemetery Administration messes things up?






But what do we do, Matthew Quinn, when the NCA messes things up.  Will you tell us and will you help us.

Will you give us tools to fix the situation.  Will you tell us how to find tools to fix the situation.
