It's usually not a legal responsibility of a sibling to pay the final expenses but the funeral home representative might ask the members of the family, including siblings to pay for the burial.
This may be reimbursed later by the liquidation of your brother's property.
However, if the deceased person's siblings are unwilling or unable to pay the burial costs, the country courthouse may be contacted to get help in receiving the final costs.
