Help Shirley lay Brielle to rest with dignity in Wellington
Brielle passed away on 28 August; we are raising $3,800 for a respectful funeral in Wellington.

Brielle, my wife, passed away on 28 August after a stroke. She was 57 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 $3,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 13 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 Brielle 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 $3,800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,300
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100
• Transport of the deceased: $155
• Memorial gathering for the family: $245
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
