Wambui, my sister, passed away on 19 January after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 88 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 February.
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 Wambui 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 $650 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $135
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
• Funeral home services and casket: $475
