Help Théo lay Lucie to rest with dignity in Ottawa
Théo lost his sister suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $3,900.

Lucie, my sister, passed away on 27 September after a stroke. She was 62 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 $3,900 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 Lucie 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 $3,900 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,000
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,500
• Transport of the deceased: $240
• Memorial gathering for the family: $160
Thank you for reading my story.

Thanks for sharing this, Théo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Nijmegen.
Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Soweto.
Take care. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Cardiff.
