Paloma, my sister, passed away on 11 February after a short illness. She was 65 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 $1,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 February. 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 Paloma 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 $1,950 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,150 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $610 • Transport of the deceased: $120 • Memorial gathering for the family: $70 Every share and every dollar helps.
