Bonny
Garba, my husband, passed away on 1 April after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 81 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 $200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 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 Garba 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: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $105 • Transport of the deceased: $45 • Memorial gathering for the family: $50 Thanks for being kind about this.

        hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. After 23 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
