I’ve recently been on the difficult end of a bereavement and I can tell you that funerals are expensive. Black families do not make funerals expensive, rather it’s the funeral parlours and their costs.

Trigger warning ⚠️ This is my and my family’s experience and I’m sure other families have had worse or better experiences.

A simple and quick burial i.e. within a week, costs at least R60 000. If you or your loved ones have a funeral policy, double check what is covered.
