Nadia, my mother, passed away on 6 August after complications from pneumonia. She was 56 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 $1,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 August.
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 Nadia 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 $1,800 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $550
• Memorial gathering for the family: $330
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $920
If you're reading this, thank you.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Rochester.
Sending strength, Farah. Looking forward to the next update. After 15 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
So sorry you're going through this, Farah. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Farah. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Tucson
Sending good thoughts, Farah. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
wishing you the best, Farah. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
You're not alone, Farah. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of London
