Addison, my wife, passed away on 3 September after a road accident. 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 $3,750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 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 Addison 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 $3,750 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,800
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,350
• Transport of the deceased: $270
• Memorial gathering for the family: $330
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
Best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Ciudad de México this morning.
You're not alone, Axel. Hope this works out for you. Love from Lyon.
hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Seoul.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Jakarta Barat.
