[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]OP here: I have to guess about their reasons. I could speculate -- my guess -- greed and guilt play a role. I still cannot believe that they would just leave her body in the morgue. So sad.   Then refusing her a burial by refusing to sign paperwork. Who knew it would be the state who helped? What did they think they were going to prove? They are not poor, or drug addicts who cannot act responsibly.[/quote]

Why guess?  Why not ask them?  They could be assholes but, perhaps, they have legitimate grievances against your mother.  My dad was horrific and there's no way in hell I would have claimed his body or pay for his funeral.  I only attended the funeral because of my mother.  Two of my brothers refused to go.  I may have been a product of his biological act but that doesn't mean I owe  him anything.[/quote]

Not answering their phones, emails. As I said, I could guess, but have not had a face to face talk with any of them. I am far out of town and flew in for the funeral.[/quote]
