Funeral costs for Amelia's sister, Jade
Amelia lost her sister suddenly and the family cannot cover funeral and burial costs of $4,450.
🇨🇦 Brampton, Ontario, Canada754 views
Jade, my sister, passed away on 20 September after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 72 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 $4,450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 October.
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 Jade 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 the Brampton hospice.
Where the $4,450 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,300
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $800
• Transport of the deceased: $170
• Memorial gathering for the family: $180

Thank you all. We're at 7% now ($321). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward cemetery plot and burial fees.

You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Brampton.
Stay strong, Amelia. Shared it with a few friends
Looking forward to the next update. After 17 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
thanks for sharing this, Amelia. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best.
