Nada, my wife, passed away on 23 September after a sudden heart attack. She was 64 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 $2,850 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 Nada 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 $2,850 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,050 • Transport of the deceased: $380 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,420 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

  • Wishing you the best, Lina. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.

    • Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out

      • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Lina

        • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. cemetery plot and burial fees comes first ($1,050) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Good question.

      • Rooting for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.

        • Stay strong, Lina. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Córdoba.

          • Sending good thoughts, Lina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Dar es Salaam but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Riyadh.
