Help Luiz lay Bianca to rest with dignity in Santos
Luiz lost his sister suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $1,300.

Bianca, my sister, passed away on 8 November after a sudden heart attack. She was 84 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 $1,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 November.
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 Bianca 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 $1,300 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $670
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $380
• Transport of the deceased: $115
• Memorial gathering for the family: $135
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Stay strong, Luiz. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Luiz.
Sure. The biggest one is funeral home services and casket, $670. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. I'll keep the page updated.
Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
You're not alone, Luiz. I hope things turn around soon
Keep going, Luiz. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together. Love from San Diego.
good luck, Luiz. Your post was clear and honest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Santos.
