Joya, my mother, passed away on 11 September after complications from pneumonia. She was 62 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 $500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 September. 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 Joya 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 $500 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $280 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $90 • Transport of the deceased: $80 • Memorial gathering for the family: $50 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Lamia
