Faith, my wife, passed away on 21 May after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 89 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 1 June. 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 Faith 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 a local food bank. Where the $600 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $30 • Funeral home services and casket: $370 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $200 Thank you so much. - Hamisi
