Laura, my mother, passed away on 28 October after a road accident. She was 52 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 $5,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 7 November.
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 Laura 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 local food bank.
Where the $5,300 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,800
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,650
• Transport of the deceased: $410
• Memorial gathering for the family: $440
