Donatella, my sister, passed away on 25 August after a road accident. She was 56 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 $1,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 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 Donatella 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 $1,650 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $220 • Memorial gathering for the family: $155 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,275 Glad we found this place. - Luigi

    Sending good thoughts, Luigi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless

    • sending good thoughts, Luigi. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Calamba so I could bring a meal

      • Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Love from San Diego.

        • So sorry you're going through this, Luigi. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you

            Thinking of you and your family, Luigi. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Palermo but we're thinking of you.

            • Thinking of you, Luigi. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Thủ Đức.

              • Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Naples.
