Farewell fund for Sergio: help Josefa's family in Bronx
After the sudden passing of Sergio, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
🇺🇸 Bronx, New York, United States4,559 views
Sergio, my grandfather, passed away on 11 June after complications from pneumonia. He was 52 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 $3,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 June.
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 Sergio 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 Bronx hospice.
Where the $3,550 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,350
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $710
• Transport of the deceased: $260
• Memorial gathering for the family: $230
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hang in there, Josefa. Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 8 people at work. Blessings.
wishing you the best, Josefa. I hope things turn around soon.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless
