Funeral costs for Giovanni's grandfather, Samuele
Samuele passed away on 22 June; we're raising $2,350 for a respectful funeral in Venice.
🇮🇹 Veneto, Italy1,413 views
Samuele, my grandfather, passed away on 22 June after complications from pneumonia. He was 24 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 $2,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 July.
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 Samuele 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 a neighborhood youth program.
Where the $2,350 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $950
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,250
• Transport of the deceased: $150
Thanks for being kind about this.

So sorry you're going through this, Giovanni. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Savar so I could bring a meal.
keep going, Giovanni. Looking forward to the next update. After 15 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Noida
shared this with my family. Love from Mohammedia
Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 18 people at work. Take care.
