Brielle, my grandmother, passed away on 16 September after a stroke. She was 71 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $5,400 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 Brielle to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a local food bank. Where the $5,400 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,850 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100 • Transport of the deceased: $230 • Memorial gathering for the family: $220 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Claire

  • hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out

    • Hang in there, Claire. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.

      • Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Jacksonville this morning. God bless.
