Ciudad de México
Julián, my husband, passed away on 6 December after a stroke. He was 65 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 $1,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 December. 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 Julián 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 $1,150 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $700 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $290 • Transport of the deceased: $75 • Memorial gathering for the family: $85 I hope life is good to you. - Marisol

    Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Laredo.
