Bacoor
Ismael, my husband, passed away on 23 July after complications from pneumonia. He was 84 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 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 Ismael 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 $550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $340 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $120 • Transport of the deceased: $40 • Memorial gathering for the family: $50 Glad we found this place.

Updates from Orlando

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($179 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Sending strength, Orlando. I hope things turn around soon. I hope September is when things finally get easier

    • Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Thủ Đức but we're thinking of you.

      • Praying for you, Orlando. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best

        • Sending strength, Orlando. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless

          • You're not alone. Shared this with my family. Love from Miami.
