Funeral costs sadly can wipe out savings even when someone served in the military which is a shame of course when serving our country. Since you're in Bakersfield, try CAPK Community Action Partnership of Kern at 661-336-5236 and their site is https://www.capk.org/. Maybe they know of local emergency programs and be sure you tell them about the service record. Also check with Kern County Veterans Service Department (661-868-7300) to see if there are any veterans survivor benefits or reimbursements you may have missed because sometimes families don't know everything that's available after a veteran passes away.

Yes my name David and I'm behind on my bills due to the loss of my son. 'm trying get assistance in Bakersfield CA for the bills as the cost of burial was high even though he was a soldier.
Well I had some money saved, But I used the money to pay all the costs of transportation and family and bills while I missed work .He was buried at Green lawn cemetery in Bakersfield

So sorry for the loss. And someone who served our country, they and their family should not have to struggle for funeral/burial funds. So sad.
As far as resources, there are some charities and non-profits to try. Read more on, and find funeral assistance programs.

I received a call this morning from one of our Soldiers advising me that his
Son passed away last night. Of course they are stunned and devastated and
With the son not having insurance the parents are currently seeking
Resources to bury him. They live in Gloucester, VA. If there are any
Resources available to assist this Family with the burial of their son during this difficult time. Thank
