Elena, my wife, passed away on 20 August after a short illness. 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 September.
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 Elena 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 $600 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $120
• Funeral home services and casket: $400
• Transport of the deceased: $80
With deep gratitude,
Lester

Praying for you, Lester. Your post was clear and honest. After 22 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
wishing you the best, Lester. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in São Paulo but we're thinking of you.
