Marisol, my wife, passed away on 29 June after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 87 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 $1,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 9 July. 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 Marisol 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 local food bank. Where the $1,600 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $290 • Memorial gathering for the family: $120 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,190 I hope life is good to you. - Salvador
