Mateo, my brother, passed away on 10 September after a road accident. He was 36 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 $1,100 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 September.
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 Mateo 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 $1,100 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $520
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $330
• Transport of the deceased: $140
• Memorial gathering for the family: $110
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

hope it all works out, Graciela. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Los Angeles so I could bring a meal.
