Arthur, my grandfather, passed away on 15 November after a short illness. He was 39 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 $4,750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 November.
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 Arthur 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 Rennes hospice.
Where the $4,750 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,200
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $860
• Transport of the deceased: $470
• Memorial gathering for the family: $220

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rémi.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. funeral home services and casket comes first ($3,200) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.
Hang in there, Rémi. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Tamale so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Good luck, Rémi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier!
thanks for sharing this, Rémi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Envigado donated after I showed her your page.
a colleague of mine might know someone for this in Brittany. I'll ask around and let you know
Wishing you peace, Rémi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Swansea.
