Tuğba, my grandmother, passed away on 2 April after a stroke. She was 68 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 $1,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 April. 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 Tuğba 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 Bornova hospice. Where the $1,250 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $140 • Funeral home services and casket: $970 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $140 Every share and every dollar helps.

      The list at the bottom is the whole picture. memorial gathering for the family is the biggest at $140. It helps to be asked.

  • Sending good thoughts, Erdem. I hope things turn around soon. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

    • thinking of you and your family, Erdem. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless!

      • Hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Los Angeles but we're thinking of you. All the best.

        • Thinking of you and your family, Erdem. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Bornova.
