Inès, my grandmother, passed away on 25 August after a sudden heart attack. She was 74 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 $2,900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 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 Inès 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 $2,900 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,300
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100
• Transport of the deceased: $340
• Memorial gathering for the family: $160
Every share and every dollar helps.

Keep going, Arthur. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Worcester.
So sorry you're going through this, Arthur. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Strasbourg.
