Game’s family is saying that he promised to pay a portion of his cousin’s funeral expenses and then bailed when it was time to pay up! Robert “Kirky” Kirkwood told TMZ that when his sister died, The Game — who he says is his first cousin — volunteered to pay half of the $14k it cost to bury her. But afterwards, Kirky says The Game changed his phone number and went into hiding! When its about money so much can be misunderstood, that could be the amount they wanted him to pay, or assumed he would pay….the list goes on and on. It’s his first cousin though, he is automatically going to be looked at for help and why not. People can easily say help the fam out but you never know what he’s doing for them, what policy’s were in place, if somebody’s holding on to the money and further more $14,000. ….we just held services for my aunt that cost $6000. Two wakes, in two different cities, the funeral and she was buried on a whole different day for $6G’s Somebody’s inflating some cost, and if you don’t have $14,000 don’t spend it!
