Summary

A 93-year-old mother of eleven, Euvy Rodney, died with one final wish: to be buried in her homeland, Guyana. But her Queens-based funeral home cremated her instead—ignoring her family’s explicit instructions. Devastated, her loved ones filed a complaint with the state, questioning the funeral home’s procedures and whether the remains are even hers. The cremation occurred on July 14, and while the crematorium declined to comment, the family is left in anguish and uncertainty, underscoring the urgent need for funeral homes to honor wishes with precision and care.
