Addison, my grandmother, passed away on 23 May after a stroke. She was 54 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 $5,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 June. 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 Addison 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 $5,150 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,700 • Memorial gathering for the family: $175 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,275 Thanks for reading all this. - Jayden

    thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Madrid but we're thinking of you.

          Keep going, Jayden. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.

            Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out.

              Sending love. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Aurora so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Karachi
