 "betrayal of their memory to say they were recruited by blackmail, lies and pardons," she noted, "Such recruitment, carried out in haste, is implausible, even impossible."

Death
Vernay-Jacob went on to live a long, full life. She died at the age of 88 in Paris, France on March 4, 2013.

Just over two years later, her husband, Alain Vernay, died at home at the age of 97 on August 12, 2015, and was buried at the Montparnasse Cemetery in Paris. His obituary in Le Figaro noted that the happiest years of his life were those spent with his wife. They were survived by three children, seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

The remains of her sister, Simone Veil, who was also interred at Montparnasse following her death in 2017, were exhumed and reinterred on July 1, 2018 in the Panthéon after thousands of French citizens petitioned their government to recognize her service to the nation with reburial there (only the fifth woman in history to be accorded this honor).

Awards
Denise Vernay-Jacob was accorded multiple awards for valor, post-war, in recognition of her service with the French Resistance during World War II. These honors included:

 Commandeur de la Légion d'honneur (Legion of Honor); 
 Grand'croix de l'ordre national du Mérite (French National Order of Merit);
 Croix de guerre 1939–1945 avec palmes (War Cross 1939–1945 with palm); and
 Médaille de la Résistance avec rosette (Medal of the Resistance with Officers' Rosette), French Committee of National Liberation.
