🇳🇬 Nigeria832 views
Kingsley, my husband, passed away on 6 January after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 91 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 $350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 20 January.
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 Kingsley 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 Benin City hospice.
Where the $350 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $270
• Transport of the deceased: $40
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Take care. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Cairo.
