Anywhere in the world2,302 views
Nakato, my grandmother, passed away on 22 September after complications from pneumonia. She was 54 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 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 Nakato 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 $550 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $80
• Memorial gathering for the family: $55
• Funeral home services and casket: $415

Sending good thoughts, Lucy. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.
Take care. Your post was clear and honest. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
you're not alone, Lucy. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
this could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Nakuru.
Good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Kyiv.
