Aaron, my uncle, passed away on 4 September after complications from pneumonia. He was 42 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $2,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 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 Aaron 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 $2,300 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $330
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,550
• Transport of the deceased: $420
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you peace, Jordan. Your post was clear and honest. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Sending good thoughts, Jordan. Shared it with a few friends. I hope November is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Keep going. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Sukkur
