Getachew, my husband, passed away on 29 December after a sudden heart attack. He was 23 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 13 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 Getachew 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 $700 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $380
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $195
• Transport of the deceased: $50
• Memorial gathering for the family: $75
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
