Until his death in London in 1928, aged 66, DH continued to serve on various Great War ex-servicemen's welfare committees and charities such as The Haig Fund and The Haig Homes. His relatives certainly believed that the strain so incurred was instrumental in his relatively early death.

At DH's state funeral more than 30,000 military veterans followed the cortege to his final resting place at Dryberg Abbey near Alnwick, Northumberland, England. It was said to be the largest assemblage of British subjects at such a public event up to that date. That so many of his former soldiers made the effort to travel to this isolated place is quite extraordinary. One can only wonder how many would have turned out if the ceremony had taken place in one of the more densely populated area of the country.
