Anywhere in the world1,956 views
Ramon, my uncle, passed away on 22 September after a road accident. He was 66 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 October.
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 Ramon 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 local food bank.
Where the $700 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $450
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $125
• Transport of the deceased: $75
• Memorial gathering for the family: $50
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

thinking of you and your family, Joshua. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
Wishing you the best, Joshua. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
Take care, Joshua. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Bogotá.
