Benjamin, my brother, passed away on 6 June after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 59 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $2,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 20 June.
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 Benjamin 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 the Los Angeles hospice.
Where the $2,700 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $460
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,100
• Memorial gathering for the family: $140
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

sending love, Ezekiel. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry!
Rooting for you, Ezekiel. Hope you get there.
Hang in there, Ezekiel. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Praying for you, Ezekiel. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Curitiba so I could bring a meal.
