Even the very basic funerals have become such an expensive undertaking and some families are just not in a position to give their love ones the send off that they would like.
The cost of dying now rivaling the cost of living. That’s how it is in dystopia (Antigua). What a calamity
Questions to ask.
1Are they Antiguans?
Maybe they were estranged from their respective families in life so now in death why bother!
2. If non nationals, maybe illegal and the family is staying low for obvious reasons.
You are obviously hitting a wall so just wait the period prescribed by law and bury the worm food!!!

If they was getting money I’m sure they would have claimed them
Antigua please keep sharing this. Maybe somebody abroad don’t even know what happen.
I hope the families reach out before the 14 days done. At least give them a proper goodbye.
This really sad man. Imagine passing and nobody come forward for you. Antigua small, somebody must know these families
You say this as if well the deceased going to know. I can’t imagine it cause I’ll be dead, so I would have absolutely no idea…….
Fingers crossed the families are located soon. They need closure, and these individuals deserve it too
People can’t be bothered! I will surely not use my personal money to bury anyone… so if you don’t have money, your body will remain unclaimed. Let the state bury you.
