Rocío, my grandmother, passed away on 16 May after a stroke. 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 $1,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 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 Rocío 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $1,700 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $880 • Transport of the deceased: $460 • Memorial gathering for the family: $360 I hope life is good to you.
