Is this more about the passing of your mother or more about the money is the thing you have to ask yourself. I agree you should have been contacted when your mother died. I do not understand why another family member did not contact you. If your mother was that wealthy then you know she had a will made out, so you will get your share. And your sister sounds a greedy person who has to be in control. She can not deny you your share. I am sure your mother has a will. Get a lawyer if she did not have a will. Do not let your sister be so high and might and in charge. It is really sad that your mother died and all the two or you can worry about it her estate. The women who gave birth to you has died. Is this really about paying final respects or is this about the money? No one can stop you from paying your final respects to your mother. If you missed the funeral go to the cemetery. Unless your sister has the ashes in a urn. She can not keep you from the church or funeral home. My sympathy goes out to you. But your sister has no control or power over you. Stand up and be a women and go show your Finlay respects. I dint understand why the other family members have not contacted you or told you that your mother has died if your sister did not tell you sooner. Is there more to the story then you are telling us?

First, your sister can't deny you leagal rights to the estate if there was a will. It might be in your best interest to investigate what your mothers will said. Your sister doesn't have the right to make the call, its your mothers wishes not sister's.
As far as making your peace, you need to do that in your own way at your own time. Your sister can't take that away from you. It was awful she didn't inform you of the service, but that doesn't mean she can stop you from making your peace.
Im sorry, it is hurtful when your sister is making these kinds of decisions. Try to get past it.

Bummer. Did your mother have a will? If not, the only way to contest this is legally. Doesn't sound like sister wants to make peace...could be that she doesn't want to share.
You may want to contact an attorney as soon possible if you are interested in obtaining your part of the inheritance, as some legal issues have only a short time before you can no longer file to contest or protest. You attorney may be able to determine if there was a will.
Be careful who you choose so that you don't get ripped off. Find out who's reputable in your area. Read the fine print before you sign.

Unfortunately, you will need to hire a lawyer regarding your mom's estate and try to find out from other family members where the services will be held so you can pay respects if that's still possible. My sympathies to you.

If personal contact is not available then by all means get an attorney. I don't know the circumstances (who's right or wrong) but an attorney can certainly sort it out. Just realize what it's going to cost you and make sure you believe it is worth the hassle and heartache.

When I read the "subject" I thought this is something I'd like to answer...when I started reading, I felt the same way...it's not that you can't go see your moms grave...I find it surprising that you want to do that at all. I mean YOU weren't informed that she passed away..not from one other person in your family?..which says there is bad blood between you for some reason...as I read more, I became discussted with you. It's not that you can't go to visit her grave, no-one could stop you from doing that...it's that you want money...your sister couldn't stop you from getting money IF your name was in your moms will...obviously there must be a reason it's not?

coverage regulations have what's termed a "contestable era". maximum are for the 1st 2 years. in case you lie or omit some thing on your utility, the corporation has the main appropriate to refuse to pay the declare. i'm no longer asserting that alter into the case, yet whilst your mom had maximum cancers whilst she took out the coverage, it is no longer likely they pays the declare, because she had a pre-modern-day challenge. i could call the coverage agent and locate out precisely what "form" they are speaking approximately and then call an lawyer. And regrettably, if there's a particular form that alter into required yet no longer submitted, they do no longer could desire to pay. So sorry on your loss, God bless.

It's interesting that you want to pay your final respects, but also mentioned that you're being denied your share of the money. Hum, maybe it's the money you're after all along. If she's the executor of the will and you name's not in there, then you need to go on your merry way.

why would you not know when your mother passed away... even if you do not get along with your sister this should not have limited your access to your mother.. Personally i think if you didn't care enough to even know she was dead you don't deserve anything and maybe that's the way your family See's it also I'm sure your mother has a will maybe she just didn't include you i wouldn't include a child i didn't see

You go in, in the bigest truck you can get a hold of!! Take all your friends for back up. And you roll on in to that funeral with a kicka ss attitude and you do what you want to do girl!
If you are stopped by anyone you just take out your shotgun and look them right in the eye and say..."say hello to my lil friend"
