Gabriel, my brother, passed away on 18 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 91 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 $1,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 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 Gabriel 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 $1,550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $910 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $420 • Transport of the deceased: $130 • Memorial gathering for the family: $90 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

      Thank you. If you're in Niterói I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.

  • wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update

    • Thinking of you and your family, Rosângela. Shared it with a few friends. After 23 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from El Paso!
