Marilyn passed away on 30 June; we're raising $5,550 for a respectful funeral in Leeds.

Marilyn, my mother, passed away on 30 June after a road accident. She was 57 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 $5,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 July.
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 Marilyn 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 $5,550 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,350
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,550
• Transport of the deceased: $310
• Memorial gathering for the family: $340
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Updates from Jade
Good news. Because of your gifts ($2,099 in total) I made the first payment toward cemetery plot and burial fees. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
