Natalie, my wife, passed away on 24 December after a stroke. She was 22 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 $4,900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 January. 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 Natalie 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 $4,900 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $210 • Funeral home services and casket: $3,500 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,190 Thanks for being kind about this. - Rebecca

  • Rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Bahir Dar this morning. Take care

      Stay strong, Rebecca. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Juiz de Fora.

      • shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Aurangabad donated after I showed her your page. All the best
