Oisin, my husband, passed away on 19 May after a short illness. He was 90 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 $3,750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 31 May. 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 Oisin 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $3,750 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,000 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300 • Transport of the deceased: $160 • Memorial gathering for the family: $290 Thank you so much.

    wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Nairobi.

      can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Dublin!

        Take care, Niamh. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Jakarta so I could bring a meal.
