Funeral costs for Uchenna's father, Obinna
Obinna passed away on 18 September; we're raising $650 for a respectful funeral in Port Harcourt.
🇳🇬 Port Harcourt, Rivers, Nigeria1,651 views
Obinna, my father, passed away on 18 September after a stroke. He was 35 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 September.
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 Obinna 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 $650 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $410
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $145
• Transport of the deceased: $75
• Memorial gathering for the family: $20

how is Uchenna doing now?
Wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Gazipur.
Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
sending love, Uchenna. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
