Default The Last Post Fund

Here in Montreal we have the only certified military cemetary in the suburb of Poine Claire,near Dorval(now Pierre Trudeau)airport.I personally have five relative,inlaws buried there,including my mom & dad & grandfather.To qualify,the deceased has to be a certified veteran.Wives may also be interred.Instead of white military headstones,each grave is made up of a flat rectangular marker with the deceased persons name ,rank,date of birth/death .After the rank the letters CA denote a war veteran.I was just wondering,after seeing the news article on TV,if whether the fund has also been affected by the waiting list for grave markers.They are a true supporter of our vets who cannot afford a decent burial,no matter what monetary circumstances,they died under
