Shinjuku
Saki, my mother, passed away on 2 March after complications from pneumonia. She was 83 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 $2,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 18 March. 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 Saki 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 local food bank. Where the $2,950 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,500 • Transport of the deceased: $200 • Memorial gathering for the family: $250 Glad we found this place. - Tatsuya
