Nancy, my mother, passed away on 9 August after a stroke. She was 34 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 $1,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 24 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 Nancy 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 $1,000 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $590 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $300 • Transport of the deceased: $55 • Memorial gathering for the family: $55 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Kariuki
