Mercy, my mother, passed away on 5 July after a stroke. She was 48 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 $850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 July. 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 Mercy 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 Quezon City hospice. Where the $850 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $550 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $165 • Transport of the deceased: $110 • Memorial gathering for the family: $25 With deep gratitude, Lovely
