Farewell fund for Océane: help Sarah's family in Paris
After the sudden passing of Océane, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
🇫🇷 Paris, Île-de-France, France3,585 views
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.

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
