Fatima, my mother, passed away on 14 May after a road accident. She was 31 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 $1,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 20 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 Fatima 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 $1,350 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,100 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $175 • Transport of the deceased: $45 • Memorial gathering for the family: $30 With deep gratitude, Brandon
