Daniela, my grandmother, passed away on 24 August after a short illness. She was 55 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 $1,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 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 Daniela 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 $1,150 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $95 • Memorial gathering for the family: $115 • Funeral home services and casket: $940 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Óscar

  • You're not alone, Óscar. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
