Samuel, my husband, passed away on 10 August after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 55 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 $900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 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 Samuel to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a neighborhood youth program.
Where the $900 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $160
• Funeral home services and casket: $500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $240
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Siliguri but we're thinking of you.
sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Dharan but we're thinking of you.
Stay strong, Alexandre. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Bronx donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
Your post was clear and honest. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Fort Worth.
