Caroline, my wife, passed away on 10 September after complications from pneumonia. She was 46 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 $250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 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 Caroline 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 $250 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $85
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $120
• Memorial gathering for the family: $45
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Good luck, Atim. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
hang in there, Atim. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best!
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Corpus Christi.
You're not alone, Atim. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Kharkiv
Sending good thoughts, Atim. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Asaba so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Dar es Salaam.
thinking of you and your family, Atim. Hope you get there!
Wishing you peace, Atim. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Naples this morning. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Atim. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
