Funeral costs for Emiliano's brother, Pedro
Pedro passed away on 19 September; we are raising $800 for a respectful funeral in Bucaramanga.
🇨🇴 Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia1,578 views
Pedro, my brother, passed away on 19 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 45 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 October.
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 the Bucaramanga hospice.
Where the $800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $450
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $210
• Transport of the deceased: $85
• Memorial gathering for the family: $55
Thank you so much.
