Dario, my grandfather, passed away on 26 November after complications from pneumonia. He was 76 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 $1,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 6 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 Dario 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 $1,550 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,200
• Transport of the deceased: $125
• Memorial gathering for the family: $225
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Andrea. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Uberlândia.
Your post was clear and honest. I hope January is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Rome.
Sending good thoughts, Andrea. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
Sending love, Andrea. I hope things turn around soon. Blessings.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Rome.
