Adriana, my sister, passed away on 4 May after a sudden heart attack. She was 92 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 $1,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 18 May. 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 Adriana 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 $1,800 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $300 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,300 • Transport of the deceased: $200 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Kelly

Updates from Kelly

  1. Quick update: $1,376 raised so far (76%). the plan for funeral home services and casket is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 30% now ($541). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts.

        Thinking of you and your family, Kelly. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Munich.

              good luck, Kelly. This could happen to any of us. After 22 years in customer support I know how hard it is to ask for anything
