Pedro, my uncle, passed away on 5 December after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 83 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 $4,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 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 Pedro 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 $4,600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,050
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $950
• Transport of the deceased: $280
• Memorial gathering for the family: $320
Thank you for reading my story.

you're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend!
You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 23 people at work. Thinking of Minneapolis.
Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Cologne.
