Claudia, my wife, passed away on 23 July after a stroke. She was 56 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 $3,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 31 July. 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 Claudia 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 the Freiburg hospice. Where the $3,600 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,250 • Transport of the deceased: $450 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,900 I hope life is good to you. - Elisabeth
