Guilherme passed away on 17 November; we're raising $1,400 for a respectful funeral in Contagem.

Guilherme, my husband, passed away on 17 November after a short illness. He was 80 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $1,400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 November.
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 Guilherme 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 $1,400 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $550
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $540
• Transport of the deceased: $165
• Memorial gathering for the family: $145
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Mthatha donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Mthatha
keep going. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from El Paso
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 17 people at work.
