Chloe, my wife, passed away on 16 September after a sudden heart attack. She was 31 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 $5,050 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 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 Chloe 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 $5,050 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $960
• Transport of the deceased: $450
• Memorial gathering for the family: $140
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Rooting for you, Zoey. Shared this with my family. After 11 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
