    Thanks to all of you for your lovely thoughts. It seemed a long ride downstate. Everything was kept very short because of family arguments. (how sad) I was upset at the fact that this man was a veteran and was only given a flag and nothing more. Usually I thought that should have been given to the wife but instead was given to some grandchild. Anyway this was very hard on my hubby as these two grew up together and now that he's gone, hubby the only one left of his family now.
    Again thanks for all your thoughts.

    I don't understand a grandchild getting the flag as the wife can call
    the Veterans Adminstration and ask them why.That flag is to go to wife if no wife his mother is to receive it.
    I think it is sad when the family has problems after a death.
