Ruby, my mother, passed away on 13 September after a sudden heart attack. She was 28 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 $5,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 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 Ruby 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 $5,350 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,950 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,400 • Transport of the deceased: $590 • Memorial gathering for the family: $410 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
