Yan, my father, passed away on 23 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 59 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 $4,050 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 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 Yan 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 $4,050 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,950
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,500
• Transport of the deceased: $310
• Memorial gathering for the family: $290
Thank you for reading my story.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Ting?
Thank you. If you're in Miami I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
Sending good thoughts, Ting. Hope you get there. Love from Los Angeles.
Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 10 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Auckland this morning. Thinking of Miami.
thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
