Anna, my mother, passed away on 16 September after complications from pneumonia. She was 91 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 $4,050 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 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 Anna 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 $4,050 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,700 • Funeral home services and casket: $2,000 • Transport of the deceased: $350 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Beau

Updates from Beau

  1. Quick update: $2,673 raised so far (66%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,937 in total) the plan for cemetery plot and burial fees is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. 38% there. I made the first payment toward funeral home services and casket. Thank you.

      Thanks for sharing this, Beau. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Leicester this morning. Love from Leicester.
