Victoria, my sister, passed away on 10 September after a stroke. She was 22 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 $3,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 September. 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 Victoria 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 $3,300 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,950 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $910 • Transport of the deceased: $185 • Memorial gathering for the family: $255 Thank you for reading my story.
