Ugo, my husband, passed away on 23 August after a sudden heart attack. He was 46 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 $2,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 August. 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 Ugo 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 $2,800 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,300 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $970 • Transport of the deceased: $350 • Memorial gathering for the family: $180 With deep gratitude, Edoardo

  • Wishing you peace, Edoardo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Brescia.

      Is there anything that isn't money that would help Edoardo?
