Abubakar, my uncle, passed away on 13 June after a stroke. He was 36 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 June.
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 Abubakar 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 neighborhood youth program.
Where the $550 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $190
• Memorial gathering for the family: $75
• Funeral home services and casket: $285
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Surabaya but we're thinking of you. God bless.
Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Orlando.
Thinking of you and your family, Michael. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Aberdeen
