Saying goodbye to Wunmi - help with funeral expenses
After the sudden passing of Wunmi, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Wunmi, my grandmother, passed away on 21 September after a road accident. 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 7 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 Wunmi 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 $600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $320
• Memorial gathering for the family: $25
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $255
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Lagos.
Wishing you peace, Ngozi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Niterói donated after I showed her your page
so sorry you're going through this, Ngozi. I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up.
You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Cầu Giấy.
Wishing you the best, Ngozi. Shared this with my family.
