Kylie, my grandmother, passed away on 18 February after complications from pneumonia. She was 93 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 $5,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 March.
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 Kylie 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 the San Diego hospice.
Where the $5,150 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,550
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,200
• Transport of the deceased: $130
• Memorial gathering for the family: $270
Every share and every dollar helps.

Keep going, Claire. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Best of luck, Claire. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Hubballi this morning.
wishing you the best, Claire. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Bogor.
what's already covered and what's the $5,150 for?
Funeral home services and casket is $3,550 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Ask me anything else.
Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of San Diego
Hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Akron this morning. Take care.
Sending strength, Claire. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 33 people at work. Take care
