Favour, my grandmother, passed away on 19 January after a sudden heart attack. She was 91 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 $400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 January.
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 Favour 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 $400 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $60
• Funeral home services and casket: $290
• Transport of the deceased: $50
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace. Hope you get there. Don't give up. Greetings from Khon Kaen.
praying for you, Khadija. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together. Take care
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 10 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Lagos.
