i get it. it was a weird place to be for her. we discussed it all. ultimately we all thought it would go towards helping them in Houston. That was cut way short and now there is 4k that was meant to go towards something it's now unable to. My mom isn't the type, nor is our family, to just pocket the money. My dad had life insurance to pay for funeral expenses. she didnt tell me where it went exactly but im pretty sure it went to st jude or cancer research since thats what my dad died from.

I'm sure those that gave know/love/trust your family no matter where the funds went especially considering the unplanned outcome.
Your experience with it just brought up the idea of GFM in general almost having a false pretense of a restricted gift when it's not. I think there's an assumption that once you click donate, your control ends though.
