Adrián, my father, passed away on 21 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 52 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 $5,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 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 Adrián 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 $5,300 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,650 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $690 • Transport of the deceased: $550 • Memorial gathering for the family: $410 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
