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

        • Idris Kamal Lotfy

          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.

            • Tania Moumita Sen

              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.
