Her estate should pay for it. I don't know what happens if she had no money.

Try Public welfare, health services or financial services, maybe.
My deepest condolences. Your mother probably didn't expect to die so young, and didn't leave money or instructions. Good luck & please email me if I can help!

work with a funeral director. They should be able to help you make appropriate choices. Usually the least expensive option is cremation. Depending on your county, the coroner may also be of help.
I am so sorry for your loss and hope that you have other family and friends to help support you at this time.

I'm sorry for your loss. Did see leave any money behind? Usually people at the funeral parlor can help you plan the service and the budget. Expenses through them can be paid off in installments as well.
