Saying goodbye to Edson - help with funeral expenses
After the sudden passing of Edson, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Edson, my father, passed away on 11 October after a short illness. He was 44 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 $1,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 October.
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 Edson 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 the São Paulo hospice.
Where the $1,250 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $770
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $300
• Transport of the deceased: $55
• Memorial gathering for the family: $125
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hang in there. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
best of luck. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 14 people at work

Thinking of you and your family, Thiago. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Nagpur.
Thanks for sharing this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Austin.
