Kelly, my grandmother, passed away on 17 July after a short illness. She was 65 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 $1,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 August.
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 Kelly 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 $1,300 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $570
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $440
• Transport of the deceased: $170
• Memorial gathering for the family: $120
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
Updates from Sérgio
Thank you all. We're at 5% now ($60). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for memorial gathering for the family is now scheduled.
Update from Campinas: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 5% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($50 in total) I made the first payment toward cemetery plot and burial fees. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Campinas
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Corpus Christi so I could bring a meal. Love from Nashik!
Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Brampton donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
