Melanie, my wife, passed away on 28 August after complications from pneumonia. She was 90 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 $1,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 8 September.
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 Melanie 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 $1,700 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,150
• Transport of the deceased: $320
• Memorial gathering for the family: $230
Thank you so much.

Keep going. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Heliopolis.
