Farewell fund for Uche: help Titilayo's family in Benin City
Uche passed away on 25 September; we're raising $800 for a respectful funeral in Benin City.
🇳🇬 Benin City, Edo, Nigeria853 views
Uche, my husband, passed away on 25 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 87 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 6 October.
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 Uche 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 $800 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $300
• Transport of the deceased: $40
• Funeral home services and casket: $460
Thanks for reading all this.

Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care!
So sorry you're going through this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Benin City.
Wishing you peace, Titilayo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
