REPORTING DEATH OF A TEXAS NARFE MEMBER
You should report the death of a NARFE Chapter member to our Texas Federation of Chapters (TFC) Secretary and to Headquarters NARFE. The TFC Secretary will adjust TFC Records and notify the Editor of the Texas Federal Retiree (TFR) of the death so the death will appear in the next issue of the TFR. Headquarters NARFE will use the information to adjust records at that level.
There are two acceptable methods of reporting death. The Chapter Secretary or other official designated by the Chapter President should make the death notification.
The FIRST method which is probably the easiest involves the use of email. Simply send an email to memsrvcs@narfe.org at Headquarters NARFE with a copy to Pauline Belser our TFC Secretary at pollyb1212@sbcglobal.net. You may send a separate email to Headquarters and to Pauline Belser. However, be sure to include the member's name, chapter number, date of death, their NARFE membership number, and their surviving spouse and address if known.
The SECOND method involves use of the Headquarters NARFE Form Number F-9, dated 08/02. The F-9 is a prepaid postcard addressed to Membership Department, 606 N. Washington St., Alexandria, VA 22314-9704. For information purposes, a copy of the backside of a F-9 is presented below. If you mail the F-9 in a separate envelope, be sure it is addressed to the above Alexandria, Virginia address. You can advise the TFC Secretary by mailing a copy of the F-9, sending an email to pollyb1212@sbcglobal.net , or by a separate letter to:

Pauline Belser TFC Secretary 708 Dogwood Lane Waxahachie, TX 75165 Her telephone is: 972-937-7235 |
The TFC Secretary needs as a minimum the member's name, chapter number, and date of death. Do not send the report of the member's death to the Editor of the Texas Federal Retiree, since the deaths are reported to the Editor by the TFC Secretary.
