Paula, my wife, passed away on 10 May after a short illness. She was 27 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 $1,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 24 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 Paula 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 $1,350 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $700
• Transport of the deceased: $250
• Memorial gathering for the family: $400
With deep gratitude,
Mia

I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Augsburg
Good luck, Mia. Shared this with my family
You're not alone, Mia. This could happen to any of us.
Hope things get better soon, Mia. Hope you get there. After 11 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Cầu Giấy.
Wishing you peace, Mia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Nagoya!
Thinking of you and your family, Mia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Buffalo but we're thinking of you
