MStars News has learned that there were at least 200 mourners that attended the funeral service for Mob Wives star, Angela Raiola, aka "Big Ang" on Monday, February 22 in Brooklyn, New York.

According to TMZ, the late reality star's family and friends said their final goodbyes to Raiola at the Basilica of Regina Pacis Church. Raiola's estranged husband, Neil Murphy, along with Carla Facciolo and Renee Graziano were all in attendance at the service that began Monday morning around 9:30 am.

MStars News has been keeping up with this story since Raiola died last Thursday. The reality star had stage 4 brain and lung cancer.

Over the weekend, friends and family remembered Raiola during visitation services at the Scarpaci Funeral Home in Brooklyn. Raiola was buried at the Resurrection Cemetery in her hometown of Staten Island.

Before she died, Raiola appeared on Dr. Oz where she revealed that her family were her support system, and her strength. "I look at my kids and my grandchildren and I know how much they need me," Raiola told the doctor. "My daughter lives with me with her kids and her husband, so I'm very close to my grandchildren. My sons' kids always sleep over."

Two Mob Wives stars that were banned from Ang's memorial services included, Karen Gravano and Brittany Fogarty. Both of their fathers worked with the FBI to help take down some notorious mobsters back in the day.

Gravano's father, Sammy "Sammy the Bull" Gravano, cooperated with the FBI to help turn in the infamous mob leader, John Gotti.
