Funeral costs for Víctor's brother, Alejandro
After the sudden passing of Alejandro, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Alejandro, my brother, passed away on 29 August after complications from pneumonia. He was 86 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 $1,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 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 Alejandro 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 the Xalapa hospice.
Where the $1,800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,350
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $220
• Transport of the deceased: $140
• Memorial gathering for the family: $90
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Thinking of you, Víctor. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up.
You're not alone, Víctor. Shared this with my family. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Xalapa.
hang in there, Víctor. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Seoul
hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. After 13 years in construction I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
Hope it all works out, Víctor. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Xalapa
