Abosede passed away on 20 November; we're raising $750 for a respectful funeral in Gwagwalada.

Abosede, my grandmother, passed away on 20 November after complications from pneumonia. She was 80 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 December.
I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Abosede to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
The funds will be paid directly to the funeral home, and I'll share the receipt.
Where the $750 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $220
• Funeral home services and casket: $510
• Transport of the deceased: $20
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

keep going, Henry. Hope you get there. All the best
Take care. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Heraklion donated after I showed her your page. Love from Heraklion

your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Baton Rouge.
You're not alone, Henry. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Bakersfield so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Henry. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Gwagwalada

Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Kano
Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Gwagwalada
Take care, Henry. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
