Nga, my mother, passed away on 28 July after a sudden heart attack. She was 56 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 $3,750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 16 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 Nga 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 $3,750 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $430 • Memorial gathering for the family: $450 • Funeral home services and casket: $2,870 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Tâm

  2. Small update. $1,665 so far, I made the first payment toward funeral home services and casket.

  3. Wanted to say thank you properly. 25% funded and the plan for funeral home services and casket is now scheduled.
