Paolo, my husband, passed away on 18 September after complications from pneumonia. He was 78 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 $3,100 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 September.
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 Paolo 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 $3,100 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300
• Transport of the deceased: $165
• Memorial gathering for the family: $135
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Sending love, Sergio. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
