Dear friends, family, and kind souls,
Three days ago, I lost my grandmother—the woman who raised me with all the love and care of a mother. She was my foundation, my strength, and the heart of my world.
Her final wish was simple yet deeply meaningful: to be laid to rest in peace with dignity in a closed casket and a timely burial. She didn’t want a funeral, only a quiet farewell honoring her wishes.
The cost to make this happen is $2,000. While I’ve done all I can to contribute, I need help to bridge the gap. Any support you can offer—whether it’s a donation, sharing this message, or simply keeping us in your prayers—will make a difference.
I am so grateful for your kindness and generosity during this difficult time. It means everything to know that others stand with me in honoring her memory.
Thank you for reading and for helping me give her the farewell she truly deserves.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Emily
