Hamisi, my uncle, passed away on 17 March after a sudden heart attack. He was 75 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 March.
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 Hamisi 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 $650 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $25
• Funeral home services and casket: $360
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $265
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
- Peter

thanks for sharing this. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
