STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS28301 / SJM101
The purpose of this Memorial is to request the President of the United States to designate a state funeral for
the last surviving Medal of Honor recipient from World War II when such recipient passes away. A state
funeral would provide our state and nation the opportunity to honor 16 million men and women of the greatest
generation who served in our armed forces from 1941 to 1945.
FISCAL NOTE
There will be no fiscal impact to the state or local governments because state funerals are held in Washington
D.C.
