When the parents married, did the mother convert to Judaism and where the children, therefore, brought up in the Jewish faith, which would have been the norm?? If so their mother should be buried accordingly. If said mother did not convert, which would be strange as it appears the father was a devout Jew unless of course there was a prior agreement between the families, the children could have been raised in the Christian tradition. It appears the mother did keep Kosher in her home, but abandoned this religious observance once the father had passed on, did she also then convert back to the religion of her childhood??, The siblings appear to be haggling over the burial of their beloved mother, who in turn had married and loved their Jewish father who created them, should they not be showing love and respect for the man who raised them and keep the couple together in death.
