Olga, my grandmother, passed away on 24 October after a road accident. She was 44 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 $1,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 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 Olga 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 $1,600 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,100 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $290 • Transport of the deceased: $140 • Memorial gathering for the family: $70 Thank you so much. - Galina
