Cremation is the most economical for someone on a limited budget. Many VA cemeteries have above ground cremains vaults due to the popularity of cremation. If cremation is not desired the VA provides a burial plot and headstone at no cost but the coffin and embalming must be paid for by the survivors. Many VA cemeteries have a small chapel for the funeral service so you don't have to pay a mortuary for the use of their facility. The Bushnell VA cemetery will be my final resting place.
