Badagry
Queen, my sister, passed away on 2 February after a short illness. She was 44 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 February. 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 Queen 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 Badagry hospice. Where the $550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $260 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $175 • Transport of the deceased: $75 • Memorial gathering for the family: $40 Thanks for reading all this.

  • it takes guts to ask. Well done. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Abuja.

    • take care. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope March is when things finally get easier.

      • You're not alone, Nkechi. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Bengaluru donated after I showed her your page. Love from Bengaluru

        • Hope you get there. Greetings from Liverpool.

          • Thinking of you and your family. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
