Oskar, my uncle, passed away on 22 September after a short illness. He was 89 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 $3,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 September.
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 Oskar 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 the Düsseldorf hospice.
Where the $3,500 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,700
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,200
• Transport of the deceased: $300
• Memorial gathering for the family: $300
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

You're not alone, Sabine. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
Keep going, Sabine. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Sabine. Shared it with a few friends.
Sending strength, Sabine. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
