Saying goodbye to Oonagh - help with funeral expenses
After the sudden passing of Oonagh, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
Anywhere in the world3,511 views
Oonagh, my wife, passed away on 13 September after a stroke. She was 87 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 $4,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 September.
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 Oonagh 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 $4,150 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,200
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,700
• Memorial gathering for the family: $250
With deep gratitude,
Rory

is there anything that isn't money that would help Rory?
Thank you. If you're in Dublin I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Stay strong, Rory. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Orlando
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rory.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. cemetery plot and burial fees comes first ($1,200) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Appreciate you taking the time.
Wishing you peace, Rory. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Yogyakarta.

Thanks for sharing this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
