Tiffany, my wife, passed away on 4 March after a short illness. She was 83 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 $5,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 18 March.
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 Tiffany 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 Los Angeles hospice.
Where the $5,700 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,550
• Memorial gathering for the family: $400
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,750
Thank you for reading my story.

Best of luck, Sarah. Your post was clear and honest
So sorry you're going through this, Sarah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
keep going, Sarah. Hope you get there.
Hope things get better soon, Sarah. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
Thinking of you and your family, Sarah. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected!
