Funeral costs for Naana's wife, Patience
Naana lost her wife suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $750.
🇬🇭 Accra, Greater Accra, Ghana1,056 views
Patience, my wife, passed away on 3 July after a road accident. She was 49 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 $750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 July.
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 Patience 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 $750 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $510
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $125
• Transport of the deceased: $45
• Memorial gathering for the family: $70
Thank you so much.

This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Ikeja donated after I showed her your page.
Sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Accra.
You're not alone, Naana. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Naana. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Birmingham.
Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Gazipur but we're thinking of you. Love from Gazipur
Sending good thoughts, Naana. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Cairo.
