Saying goodbye to Emilia - help with funeral expenses
Lydia lost her grandmother suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $3,050.

Emilia, my grandmother, passed away on 26 July after complications from pneumonia. She was 90 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 $3,050 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 August.
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 Emilia 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 $3,050 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,950
• Memorial gathering for the family: $320
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $780
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Thinking of you, Lydia. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings.
thinking of you, Lydia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Toronto.
Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Auckland so I could bring a meal. Love from Thika
