Help Hugo lay Juan to rest with dignity in Medellín
After the sudden passing of Juan, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
🇨🇴 Medellín, Antioquia, Colombia1,561 views
Juan, my grandfather, passed away on 1 August after a short illness. He was 37 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 $1,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 August.
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 Juan 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 the Medellín hospice.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $660
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $240
• Memorial gathering for the family: $100
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
