Karina, my mother, passed away on 31 May after complications from pneumonia. She was 37 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 $2,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 18 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 Karina 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 $2,650 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $500 • Memorial gathering for the family: $155 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,995 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Nijmegen.
