Mi-young, my sister, passed away on 19 September after a stroke. She was 80 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 $3,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 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 Mi-young 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 $3,950 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,750 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,500 • Transport of the deceased: $300 • Memorial gathering for the family: $400 If you're reading this, thank you. - Woo-jin

      reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 33 people at work.

      • Best of luck, Woo-jin. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Take care.

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

          • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. funeral home services and casket comes first ($1,750) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.

        • Stay strong, Woo-jin. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Malang.

          • praying for you, Woo-jin. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Paris.
