Jose, my husband, passed away on 24 September after a stroke. He was 62 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 $4,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 8 October.
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 Jose 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 $4,000 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $240
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,200
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,560
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope things get better soon, Caleb. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Birmingham.
Thanks for sharing this, Caleb. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family, Caleb. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Campinas but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Campinas.
