The easiest way is to make contact with a Veteran's Service Officer at a local federal building or county office building, or if unavailable, any local VFW or American Legion Post. Make sure you have as much documentation as possible in order to get the ball rolling.

If a veteran chooses to be buried in a veterans cemetery, her or his spouse may be buried next to that veteran, with tombstone engraving and perpetual care provided, all at no cost to the family. Note, however, that the burial of a veteran's spouse MUST be next to the veteran. If a veteran chooses not to be buried in a veterans cemetery (the choice my father made, for example), then the spouse (in this case, my mother, who was never in the military) can not seek burial in a veterans cemetery, and certainly not for free.
He was buried in the Basilica of Saint-Denis, France.

Generally, a spouse cannot be buried in a veterans cemetery unless the veteran is deceased. However, some veterans cemeteries may allow for the burial of a spouse if the veteran has been declared legally incapacitated or if specific circumstances apply. It's best to check with the specific cemetery for their policies and eligibility criteria.
Yes. All retired (meaning officers, or enlisted who were retired after 20+ years) can wear the uniform once they are no longer in the military and can be buried in it. Also any Veteran can do the same. *note Veteran means they served during wartime or peacetime and do not have to have been overseas

No, not that I have ever heard of. The only way a veteran's burial is paid for in full is if they were killed in the line of service. They will provide a basic military headstone if buried in a VA cemetary and a one time assistance payment of approximately 250$
Over 66,000. Buried in 7 different cemeteries in France, Belgium, Holland , and Luxemburg.
