How a government marker reaches a Texas cemetery
VA's National Cemetery Administration lists 6 cemeteries in Texas: 4 open for new burials, 1 open for cremated remains only and 1 with no new gravesites (closed). VA also lists 5 grant-funded state or tribal veterans cemeteries in Texas.
For a non-national cemetery in Texas, VA delivers a government headstone or marker directly to the cemetery where the grave is located, or to a receiving agent for delivery to the cemetery.

VA does not pay the costs of installing that headstone or marker in a non-national cemetery.
