Kiara, my wife, passed away on 12 September after a short illness. She was 59 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 $900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 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 Kiara 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 $900 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $670 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $135 • Transport of the deceased: $45 • Memorial gathering for the family: $50 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Anita
