Avery, my mother, passed away on 20 February after a sudden heart attack. She was 31 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 $3,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 8 March.
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 Avery 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 $3,700 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $240
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,250
• Memorial gathering for the family: $210
Every share and every dollar helps.

Good luck, Howard. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Take care, Howard. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Toronto.
You're not alone, Howard. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Sending good thoughts, Howard. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Alcalá de Henares
Thinking of you, Howard. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together.
Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Regensburg.
Take care. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of New York.
