“Funeral Directors witness many sad occasions as they serve families in their time of grief,” the funeral home wrote on Facebook. “Among those sad situations are those people who have no family or friends.”
The funeral home announced Badgett will receive full military honors, and the Air Force and Patriot Guard will be in attendance. They also stated they will cover the cost of the funeral for the veteran.
“While we do not know the story behind this individual or the events that brought him to this ending of his life, we do know that he served his country and he deserves an honorable burial.”
Badgett will be laid to rest at Middle Tennessee State Veteran Cemetery in Nashville on September 19 at 11:00 a.m.
Even if you’re not able to attend, please honor Lyndon Badgett, who served our country.
