Océane, my sister, passed away on 11 April after a sudden heart attack. She was 62 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 $3,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 20 April. 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 Océane 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 Paris hospice. Where the $3,600 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $370 • Funeral home services and casket: $2,500 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $730 Thank you so much. - Sarah

  • Thanks for sharing this, Sarah. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like

    • Sending strength, Sarah. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

      • Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Saint-Denis

        • Hang in there, Sarah. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did

          • Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

            • I hope things turn around soon. Love from Denver
