Eduardo, my uncle, passed away on 7 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 72 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 $1,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 September. 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 Eduardo 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $1,950 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $480 • Memorial gathering for the family: $310 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,160 If you're reading this, thank you.

Updates from Daniel

  1. Wanted to say thank you properly. 28% funded and the plan for memorial gathering for the family is now scheduled.

  2. Update from Glendale: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 13% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
