Franco, my father, passed away on 23 August after a short illness. He was 61 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 $3,200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 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 Franco to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a local food bank. Where the $3,200 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,150 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $850 • Memorial gathering for the family: $200 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Camilla

  • You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 10 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings

    • Sending strength, Camilla. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Rome.
