Matilda, my grandmother, passed away on 26 August after a short illness. She was 77 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 $250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 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 Matilda 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 $250 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $45 • Transport of the deceased: $40 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $165 Thanks for being kind about this. - Rebecca

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

    • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. memorial gathering for the family comes first ($45) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Let me know if you want more detail.

  • Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Rome.
