Graciela, my grandmother, passed away on 18 April after complications from pneumonia. She was 82 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 $2,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 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 Graciela 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 San Sebastián hospice. Where the $2,250 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $105 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,900 • Memorial gathering for the family: $245 Thanks for reading all this. - Fernanda
