Brandon, my husband, passed away on 23 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 80 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 $4,450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 6 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 Brandon 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 $4,450 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,350
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,600
• Transport of the deceased: $250
• Memorial gathering for the family: $250
Glad we found this place.

Good luck, Lawrence. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Munich but we're thinking of you. Take care
