🇺🇸 United States3,138 views
Alexandra, my sister, passed away on 6 July after a stroke. She was 46 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 $5,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 July.
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 Alexandra 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 the El Paso hospice.
Where the $5,300 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,050
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,400
• Transport of the deceased: $570
• Memorial gathering for the family: $280
Thank you so much.

Good luck, Josiah. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings
you're not alone. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours.
Hope things get better soon. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from São Paulo

Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
