1Opinion of the Court

IVERS, Judge:

The widow of a veteran appeals an August 4, 1994 decision of the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (BVA or Board) which denied her claims because of (1) the lack of a timely substantive appeal from the June 1990 denial of service connection for the cause of the veteran’s death and (2) the lack of new and material evidence to reopen a claim for service connection for the cause of the veteran’s death. The Secretary filed a brief. The Court has jurisdiction of the case under 38 U.S.C. § 7252(a). For the reasons stated below, the Court will affirm the decision of the BVA.
