Anthony, my brother, passed away on 19 September after a stroke. He was 58 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 $5,250 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 Anthony 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 $5,250 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,000
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,500
• Transport of the deceased: $220
• Memorial gathering for the family: $530
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
