Luna, my sister, passed away on 3 June after a short illness. She was 39 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 $1,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 June. 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 Luna 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 the Saskatoon hospice. Where the $1,600 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300 • Memorial gathering for the family: $185 • Transport of the deceased: $115 Thanks for reading all this. - Sharon

        Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update. All the best

        • Best of luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Winnipeg so I could bring a meal. All the best.

          • Hope it all works out. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Faisalabad.
