Tema
Nana, my father, passed away on 19 April after a stroke. He was 65 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 April. 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 Nana 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 $600 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $410 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $180 • Transport of the deceased: $10 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Diana

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($128 in total) I made the first payment toward transport of the deceased. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Hope it all works out. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care

    • Hope it all works out, Diana. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care.

      • Sending good thoughts, Diana. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
