Lucía, my sister, passed away on 7 August after a short illness. She was 80 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 $2,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 August. 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 Lucía 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 $2,650 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,150 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,400 • Memorial gathering for the family: $100 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Sergio

    I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
