Simiyu lost his wife suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $400.

Esther, my wife, passed away on 27 September after a stroke. She was 58 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 $400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 October.
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 Esther 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 $400 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $35
• Transport of the deceased: $25
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $340

good luck. Hope you get there. Love from Guarulhos
It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Nairobi.
I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Vancouver but we're thinking of you. God bless
Hope things get better soon, Simiyu. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
