Anyango, my grandmother, passed away on 28 February after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 37 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 $200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 March. 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 Anyango 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 $200 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $55 • Memorial gathering for the family: $20 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $125 Thanks for reading all this.
