Nollywood actress Faithia Balogun has announced the burial arrangements for her mother, Gloria Williams.
The actress disclosed the details in a post shared on her Instagram page on Monday.
According to the schedule released by the family, a wake-keep will be held on Friday, March 6. This will be followed by interment and lying-in-state on Saturday, March 7. A Thanksgiving Mass is scheduled for Sunday, March 8, at St. Monica Catholic Church.
Faithia noted that the ceremonies would be private, with attendance strictly by invitation and limited to close friends and relatives. She added that a later date would be announced for a larger public burial ceremony.
She wrote, “I want to specifically thank everyone who has reached out since the demise of my dear mother. I’m truly grateful for the emotional support, the calls, the visits and the show of love. May Allah (SWT) bless you all.
“For those who have asked for the burial details, the family has decided on a private ceremony strictly for close friends and relatives. However, a later date will be announced for the final burial ceremony that will accommodate all and sundry.
“Please note that if this invitation does not come from a designated number, there will be no admission into the hall.
“Thank you once again for the show of love. I do not take your expressions of love for granted. Thank you and God bless you.”
Last month, the actress announced her mother’s death, revealing that she passed away shortly before her 55th birthday celebration. She described her late mother as her “cheerleader, prayer warrior, best friend and gist partner.”
