Ankara
Mustafa, my husband, passed away on 27 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 48 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 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 Mustafa 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 Ankara hospice. Where the $650 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $490 • Memorial gathering for the family: $100 • Transport of the deceased: $60 Thank you for reading my story. - Arda
