Ruth, my mother, passed away on 23 February after a road accident. She was 71 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 March.
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 Ruth to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
The funds will be paid directly to the funeral home, and I'll share the receipt.
Where the $600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $390
• Memorial gathering for the family: $65
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $145
