Scarlett, my mother, passed away on 2 February after complications from pneumonia. She was 30 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 $5,450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 February. 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 Scarlett 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 $5,450 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,400 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,350 • Transport of the deceased: $350 • Memorial gathering for the family: $350 I hope life is good to you.

    thanks for sharing this, Keith. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope April is when things finally get easier. Love from Haarlem.

      Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

            Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Phuket!
