Saowaluk, my sister, passed away on 1 February after a short illness. She was 63 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 $1,200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 16 February. 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 Saowaluk 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 $1,200 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $770 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $310 • Transport of the deceased: $50 • Memorial gathering for the family: $70 With deep gratitude, Jiraporn
