Vinícius, my uncle, passed away on 21 March after a sudden heart attack. He was 69 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 $1,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 April. 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 Vinícius 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: • Memorial gathering for the family: $100 • Transport of the deceased: $160 • Funeral home services and casket: $890 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Roberto
