Vitória da Conquista
Fábio, my grandfather, passed away on 4 May after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 34 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 $1,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 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 Fábio 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 $1,650 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $80 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,150 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $420 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Fernanda
