Emil, my grandfather, passed away on 21 May after a stroke. He was 78 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 $3,400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 31 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 Emil 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 $3,400 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,150
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $610
• Transport of the deceased: $330
• Memorial gathering for the family: $310
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Stay strong, Maximilian. Your post was clear and honest. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Love from Curitiba.
Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in San Cristóbal de las Casas this morning.
