Annabelle, my grandmother, passed away on 19 September after a stroke. She was 72 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 $5,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 October. 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 Annabelle 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 $5,550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,350 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,400 • Transport of the deceased: $420 • Memorial gathering for the family: $380 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Leicester

      Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Muzaffarpur.

            wishing you peace, Kevin. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Nagpur.
