I HATE being the bearer of bad news

Hello everyone. I hope that no one thinks that I'm a total insensitive bitch who's just trying to re-open old wounds for posting this here, I thought people should know and I couldn't get a hold of anyone to tell them face to face or on the phone. As you all know, a group of us were recently trying to get Jamez Norwood a headstone since he's been without one for five years now. His "mother" was very upset by our efforts and we were afraid of what she would do so we ceased the attempt for a while. Well, yesterday Drew and I went and bought a beautiful crab orchard stone and engraved it with:

JAMEZ NORWOOD
Sept. 3, 1982-April 12, 2002
Beloved Friend & Seeker of Truth

I tried to get some of the old group that was still here together so we could all go and put the stone on his grave but it fell through. When Drew and I went, we found out that 2 weeks ago Jamez's "mother" had him exumed, cremated, and mailed to her in Louisiana. I know that it shouldn't bother me that bad because it's just a body not a soul that was placed there but still... words cannot express my anger. I'm sorry if I upset anyone, please forgive me if I did.
