Saying goodbye to Elias - help with funeral expenses
Elias passed away on 3 May; we're raising $4,900 for a respectful funeral in Dallas.

Elias, my grandfather, passed away on 3 May after a sudden heart attack. He was 73 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 $4,900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 May.
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 Elias 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 $4,900 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,700
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $730
• Transport of the deceased: $210
• Memorial gathering for the family: $260
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Dallas.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Ryan?
Thank you. If you're in Dallas I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Rio de Janeiro but we're thinking of you
Thanks for sharing this, Ryan. Shared this with my family. Take care
Praying for you, Ryan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
Take care. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Dresden so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Dwarka.
Hope it all works out, Ryan. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Dallas.
