Dorota, my wife, passed away on 21 August after a short illness. She was 47 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 $2,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 9 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 Dorota 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 $2,700 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,800 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $550 • Transport of the deceased: $180 • Memorial gathering for the family: $170 With deep gratitude, Sebastian

    I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

            sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Poznań.
