Salvador, my brother, passed away on 18 May after a sudden heart attack. He was 23 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 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 Salvador 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 $550 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $40 • Transport of the deceased: $120 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $390 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Francisco

  • hope things get better soon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out.

    • Keep going. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
