Help Pierre lay Mathilde to rest with dignity in Bordeaux
Pierre lost his mother suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $4,350.
🇫🇷 Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France2,793 views
Mathilde, my mother, passed away on 1 June after complications from pneumonia. She was 63 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 $4,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 11 June.
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 Mathilde 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 neighborhood youth program.
Where the $4,350 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,800
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $880
• Transport of the deceased: $480
• Memorial gathering for the family: $190
Thanks for reading all this.

So sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 20 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
Sending strength, Pierre. Shared it with a few friends.
