Lagos

Festus, my husband, passed away on 5 September after complications from pneumonia. He was 55 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 September. 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 Festus 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 Lagos hospice. Where the $800 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $450 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $250 • Transport of the deceased: $80 • Memorial gathering for the family: $20 Thanks for reading all this. - Nkechi
