Vy, my wife, passed away on 6 May after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 69 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 $500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 May.
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 Vy 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 $500 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $260
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $125
• Transport of the deceased: $40
• Memorial gathering for the family: $75
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thanks for sharing this, Khoa. Hope you get there. God bless.
you're not alone, Khoa. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Mumbai.
