Nuala, my wife, passed away on 28 April after a sudden heart attack. She was 83 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 $3,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 8 May. 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 Nuala 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 the Dublin hospice. Where the $3,800 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,550 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,650 • Transport of the deceased: $380 • Memorial gathering for the family: $220 If you're reading this, thank you.
