Funmilayo, my mother, passed away on 18 September after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 60 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 October. 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 Funmilayo 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 a neighborhood youth program. Where the $700 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $195 • Memorial gathering for the family: $60 • Funeral home services and casket: $445 Thank you so much.

  • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Queen.

    • Cemetery plot and burial fees is $195 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Ask me anything else.

  • Thinking of you, Queen. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
