Ingrid, my grandmother, passed away on 10 December after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 83 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 $1,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 18 December. 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 Ingrid 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 $1,300 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $930 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $170 • Transport of the deceased: $120 • Memorial gathering for the family: $80 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Jéssica

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Jéssica.

    • Sure. The biggest one is funeral home services and casket, $930. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for asking.

  • Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 14 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

    • how is Jéssica doing now?

      • Thinking of you. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.

        • Keep going. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best

          • Thinking of you. Hope you get there. After 17 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
