Funeral costs for Gustavo's uncle, Paulo
After the sudden passing of Paulo, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Paulo, my uncle, passed away on 25 December after a road accident. He was 81 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 $1,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 December.
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 Paulo 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 $1,550 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $980
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260
• Transport of the deceased: $150
• Memorial gathering for the family: $160
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hope it all works out, Gustavo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
