Inès, my grandmother, passed away on 15 January after a sudden heart attack. She was 74 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 $1,900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 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 Inès 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 $1,900 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $390
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300
• Memorial gathering for the family: $210
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

how is Jean doing now?
Keep going, Jean. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Detroit this morning. Take care
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Rawalpindi donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Boulogne-Billancourt.
Good luck, Jean. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Jean?
Thank you. If you're in Boulogne-Billancourt I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.
Hope things get better soon, Jean. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Sheffield donated after I showed her your page!
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Jean
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. transport of the deceased comes first ($390) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
best of luck, Jean. I hope things turn around soon. God bless
rooting for you, Jean. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier!
Thinking of you, Jean. Looking forward to the next update
