My mother passed away 3/28

My mother passed from a heart attack on Thursday, 3/28. I have a good portion of funds to cover the funeral costs but it’s still not enough. I want to avoid cremating her as much as possible. I want her to have a traditional burial like she deserves. My mother was a strong and fierce woman that went through so many hardships and suffering in her life.

I learned her fury and fierceness that has helped me through life. I feel she was a true feminist in her own right against all the “machismo” and misogyny she faced in the older days. She never relied on anyone for anything. She always found a way. She took on the burden of adopting me as my legal guardian from her daughter. (She’s actually my grandmother but to me she was my mother). She took responsibility to raise me as best she could even while facing her demons.

To me she was my mother and the only love of a mother I ever knew. Her loss leaves so much emptiness and pain but I know she is no longer suffering from her illnesses. She is no longer in pain.
