My mother passed in 2018 and my brother and I inherited her 401k. Mom had life insurance, 'just enough to bury me'. Well, that was over 30 years ago so, no it wasn't enough. I received 1/2 her IRA (brother got the other half). My brother fronted the remaining expense of the funeral and when I received my half of the 401K, I gave him money from that to pay for the funeral. Is that deductible?
