Permission granted Yours CR 20

Unfortunately official funerals are for current government officials. We still need money to get rid of put toilets to keep our children safe. Promise of eradication made, not kept!

It was expected! It's ridiculous!Can our government really afford paying for these funerals? And obviously the costs for the many important dignitaries attending will also be covered.

And we have been made aware that thez lot of shinanigans with these “official” funerals🤷‍♀️

Rest In Peace but

Grammy winner, RIP baba.
