Matteo, my grandfather, passed away on 16 September after a road accident. He was 61 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $1,450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 October.
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 Matteo 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 $1,450 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $210
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,050
• Memorial gathering for the family: $190
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
