Irene, my grandmother, passed away on 26 February after a road accident. She was 76 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 $500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 March. 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 Irene 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $500 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $330 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $110 • Transport of the deceased: $25 • Memorial gathering for the family: $35 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
