Ivy, my sister, passed away on 17 August after a road accident. She was 93 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 $2,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 31 August.
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 Ivy 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 $2,600 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,800
• Memorial gathering for the family: $500
• Transport of the deceased: $300
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
- Josephine

Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Laredo.
Thinking of you and your family, Josephine. Shared this with my family.
