Toledo
Amparo, my sister, passed away on 7 August after complications from pneumonia. She was 87 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 $2,100 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 August. 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 Amparo to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a local food bank. Where the $2,100 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $360 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,350 • Transport of the deceased: $390 With deep gratitude, Luis
