Betty Kay's Funeral & Burial Fund

Family fund pitch in:
This request is mostly for family and friends of my mother however anyone who would like to pitch in is welcome and so much appreciated. After 11 terrible days in the ICU Mom passed away October 11th.. coincidentally on 3 of her gradughters birthdays. 
Months leading to her passing mom constantly worried about not having money to fund her services and said she was trying to save her social security check to help relieve us kids.
I pleaded her not to worry about that and when it is time I promise we will all pitch in to cover her wishes.   Moms creamation is $1700 and her wishes to have her plot next to Grandma & Grandpa  in N.D. is $1500 .
We have many other related expenses that will include her service , wake and travel to bring her ashes to North Dakota. 
I promised mom that I would organize this and she has enough loved ones that she should not worry about such a thing.  It broke my heart in her final days she was afraid to spend much money as she did not want to burden her children of the cost of expenses.  My mom (bless her heart) ended up shopping on QVC and HSN buying her large family Christmas presents which have been coming to her house and still in boxes in her room. So we all are still going to get a Christmas gift from mom after she passed! So special and sweet! 
Please share this with family and friends of Betty Kay to keep our promise that we all come together on her services. Any thing left over will go to the  wake my mom referred to as the big party to celebrate her life she asked for.
