After the sudden passing of Aaliyah, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Aaliyah, my grandmother, passed away on 5 May after a sudden heart attack. She was 36 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 $4,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 18 May.
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 Aaliyah 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 $4,150 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $360
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,750
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $2,040
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Caroline?
Thank you. If you're in Charlotte I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
Sending love, Caroline. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.
Stay strong, Caroline. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
thinking of you and your family, Caroline. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 22 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
