Josephine, my grandmother, passed away on 15 August after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 55 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 $1,400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 1 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 Josephine 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 $1,400 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $600
• Transport of the deceased: $660
• Memorial gathering for the family: $140
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thanks for sharing this, Adeline. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Riyadh.
Hope it all works out, Adeline. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Richards Bay this morning. Take care
You're not alone, Adeline. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Aurora
