Funeral costs for Alyssa's mother, Tammy
Alyssa lost her mother suddenly and the family cannot cover funeral and burial costs of $4,050.
🇦🇺 Ballarat, Victoria, Australia2,718 views
Tammy, my mother, passed away on 29 November after a short illness. She was 86 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 $4,050 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 December.
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 Tammy 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 $4,050 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,150
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,350
• Transport of the deceased: $340
• Memorial gathering for the family: $210
Thank you so much.
