Funeral costs for Nalini's mother, Fiona
Nalini lost her mother suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $950.
🇿🇦 Western Cape, South Africa766 views
Fiona, my mother, passed away on 14 February after a short illness. She was 52 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 $950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 February.
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 Fiona 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 the George hospice.
Where the $950 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $420
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $300
• Transport of the deceased: $110
• Memorial gathering for the family: $120
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope things get better soon. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of George.
