Isabel, my sister, passed away on 5 September after a short illness. She was 81 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 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 Isabel 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 $600 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $40 • Transport of the deceased: $45 • Funeral home services and casket: $515 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Camila

  • Best of luck, Camila. Hope you get there. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
