Manuel, my brother, passed away on 10 September after a stroke. He was 45 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 $4,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 24 September. 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 Manuel 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 $4,000 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,600 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,600 • Transport of the deceased: $430 • Memorial gathering for the family: $370 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Javier

  • Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.

      Best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 5 people at work. Greetings from Chiang Mai

      • Good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings

            Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. funeral home services and casket comes first ($1,600) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.

        • hang in there, Javier. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out

          • wishing you the best. Hope this works out for you. I hope November is when things finally get easier.

            • thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of San Jose

              • Good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Take care.
