All right "Bunny", whats your number?.. wonder if I can make international calls on this work headsetmajigger...STOOPID BUILDING NOT GIVING MY PHONE ANY SIGNAL "Orange covers more than 87% of the UK" my butt... Ima kill Thomas tomorrow when I see him.
Sorry for your loss, that is terrible. Also, just wanted to mention that you can always upgrade the headstone at some later point in life when finances are better.
My condolences. I hope they find the killer.
Sioux, I'm so sorry this happened. It's terrible that your family is being so cold about it. I'm sure it's something they will deeply regret one day. Just remember what Loki said. Funerals are for the living. Sadness, loneliness, and pain are all things your cousin has moved past now. For her, there is no sadness anymore.
Just make sure that you are okay.

Sioux, sorry to hear about your lose, I will try my best to allocate some fundage for you. Its a sad thing that happened and really a Shitty situation for you to be in the middle of.
I need to give everyone an update on the issue of donations: thank you, everyone who has offered to donate, all my love to you, bless you for your kindness.
We have called the funeral home: Stephanie was cremated this morning, and there will be no funeral. There will be a memorial service at a nearby chapel; any donations recieved by the fund will go toward that memorial service and the cost of cremation.
Because any excess funds will wind up going to the family, I ask that you withhold donations for the time being. If you have already donated, I thank you from the bottom of my heart: please contact me at sioux@mchsi.com, and I will match your donation and purchase flowers for her memorial in your name.
I wish very much that I had had some say in all this, I would have done anything to ensure her a good burial; again, thank you all very much for your kindness.

That story is so sad i feel for you. but sorry i cant give aything.
Sioux, I'm a funeral director. Sate paid for funerals aren't cold and impersonal. The funeral service is still run by the funeral home and you can still bring a minister or who ever. Having the state pay just limits the options you have as far as casket, service location, and place of burial. They'll go with the lowest cost casket and plot, but the content of the service is still under your control. Each state is different, but that's the way it runs here. It's not much, but check with the funeral home and the Department of Public Assistence for what they offer. There is also a victims of violent crimes service that can help pay for things, ask the funeral home about that.

I'd vouch for Souix, played FFXI with her for years. I'm sorry to hear that Souix, all I can offer right now are my prayers.
I knew Sioux in the Remora forums, and saw her around FFXI when I played. Sioux, my heart goes out to you and yours- I'll send you a PM. You have my deepest condolences.
I worked at a Mortuary and I will tell you this. The state will not bury her. They will cremate her. That is what we do, in the State of Oregon, when we find a deceased person who has noone living to fund their funeral.
I am sorry for your loss and unless you pay up or get enough donations, she will be cremated after 10 days of being held in a freezer OR if her body is not too badly mangled she will be sent to a university where decomposition is studied.
Sad but true... in most cases.

Oops, I should have read your update. Sorry for posting before I did. However, I was right about the cremation. Best wishes to you and your family for the new year. The best way to honor your loved one is to remember the better times and live those memories once in a while.

Unfortunately, As I was researching articles based upon information "Sioux" sent to our mother - as I am the terrible sister that spoke those apparently terrible words of "the state will bury her" to "Sioux"..
The Facts as "we" as a family know about Stephanie's death are this. Friends of Stephanie's indicated that she was at a gathering or "party" of some kind, where she overdosed on drugs (the drug overdose was confirmed by the autopsy) and the "friends" indicated that out of fear of being charged with either her death or with the abundance of drugs in the home, she was taken there by her "friends" and left. No one knows if that is actually the case, or not.
Regarding the "lack of love" in the family for Stephanie - that is nothing short of an inflammatory statement made by one of Stephanie's cousins (Sioux). NONE of us could afford a funeral. Period. However, Sioux did NOT attend the memorial service, myself and our mother made the drive from Illinois to Ohio to attend - "Sioux" CHOSE not to attend, as the offer was absolutely extended.
Stephanie was cremated because her remains were so badly decomposed, there wasn't much left to bury in a full casket. She was given a very nice memorial service that was attended my many family members and local friends of our mother's family. Her burial was at the feet of her (Stephanie's) mother's burial site, which was donated by the cemetery, if I remember correctly.
Stephanie's death was tragic and it's so unfortunate that "Sioux" took that opportunity to degrade, bash and make inflammatory statements regarding her own family. It's also so unfortunate that I accidentally fell upon this forum almost 8 years later. As if our "sibling" relationship isn't strained enough, it's amazing to see what she has to say behind our backs.
