Eduardo, my husband, passed away on 30 June after a sudden heart attack. He was 48 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 $3,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 13 July. 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 Eduardo 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 $3,500 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,750 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $570 • Memorial gathering for the family: $180 Thank you so much. - Adriana
