Noemi, my mother, passed away on 15 February after a road accident. She was 57 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 $3,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 March. 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 Noemi 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 $3,700 goes: โ€ข Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300 โ€ข Funeral home services and casket: $2,250 โ€ข Transport of the deceased: $150 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

    Quick response, great follow-up

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.

  • Wishing you peace, Michele. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless

    • is there anything that isn't money that would help Michele?

      • stay strong, Michele. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together.

        • It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Rome.

          • You're not alone, Michele. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.

            • Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. After 29 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything

                Stay strong, Michele. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Lahore.
