The money given as a donation to a priest for performing any function such as a funeral is known as a stipend or stole fee.
It is customary to give a donation to the parish, and the suggested amount is around $200 - $300. There are no suggested donations for the services of the priest or deacon although a love offering is suggested for the priest or deacon.
the priest
You do not "pay" a priest for performing a sacrament, that is called simony, and it is a sin. Usually you give the priest a "stole fee" or a donation, you can call the parish office and ask what a usual donation is suggested, but such a thing is never required and is entirely voluntary. The parish secretary should be able to offer you suggestions as to how to go about it if you wish to give him a donation.
Money provided by an attendee or guest at a funeral service is referred to as a funeral donation or memorial donation. Often bereaved families will note that in lieu of flowers for the family, funeral donations be made to ZYZ and note a charitable institution or cause. Otherwise, if an organization is not specified or there is no mention of funeral donations, attendees are known to give the bereaved family the funds.

The church might tell you what the expected donation is if a funeral luncheon is provided by the parish/church community. In the case of my mother-in-law, we were told $5 per person. For 75 people, this was $350, but we rounded up to $500 since we could afford it, and my in-laws were devout parishioners.
