Saying goodbye to Soledad - help with funeral expenses
Soledad passed away on 27 September; we're raising $4,800 for a respectful funeral in Memphis.

Soledad, my wife, passed away on 27 September after a road accident. She was 52 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 $4,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 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 Soledad 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 $4,800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,800
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,350
• Transport of the deceased: $250
• Memorial gathering for the family: $400
