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.
