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

Mateus, my husband, passed away on 10 April after a road accident. He was 47 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 $1,900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 April.
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 Mateus 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 $1,900 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,100
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $540
• Transport of the deceased: $185
• Memorial gathering for the family: $75
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Eliane?
Thank you. If you're in Ribeirão Preto I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 3 people at work.
how is Eliane doing now?
rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. All the best
Sending love, Eliane. Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
