Camille, my mother, passed away on 24 March after a road accident. She was 58 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 9 April. 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 Camille 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: • Funeral home services and casket: $500 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $200 • Transport of the deceased: $30 • Memorial gathering for the family: $20 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Caloocan.

    • how is Francis doing now?

      • Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Cork.

        • So sorry you're going through this. Hope you get there. After 9 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
