Leila, my wife, passed away on 5 October after a stroke. She was 27 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 $3,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 9 October. 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 Leila 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $3,150 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,450 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100 • Transport of the deceased: $320 • Memorial gathering for the family: $280 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • Thinking of you and your family, Zaid. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Bandung.

      hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Atlanta.

      • Hope things get better soon, Zaid. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.

          rooting for you. Shared this with my family. God bless!

          • So sorry you're going through this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
