Lily, my sister, passed away on 18 September after a stroke. She was 50 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 $4,850 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 Lily 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 $4,850 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $460
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,150
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,240
Every share and every dollar helps.

Shared it with a few friends. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Brisbane.
Sending love. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Brisbane
Praying for you, Gabriella. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Hồ Chí Minh City.
Keep going, Gabriella. Looking forward to the next update.
