Miriam "Mae-Mae" Burbank a 53-year old woman from New Orleans passed on June 1st and her two daughters were determined to give her the funeral send-off of a lifetime, complete with all the things needed for a grand celebration.

Her body sits upright at the table completely embalmed holding a menthol cigarette in one hand and a wine glass in the other surrounded by Busch beer.

“She gets down, 53. She’s not a normal 53,” said Burbank’s daughter, Zymora Kimball. “I didn’t want her to just go, just go. So, I had to do something amazing. So she’s never forgotten.”
