Karolina, my mother, passed away on 6 November after a stroke. She was 24 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 $1,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 November. 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 Karolina 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 $1,550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $930 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $460 • Transport of the deceased: $70 • Memorial gathering for the family: $90 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Karolina
