Dylan, my husband, passed away on 20 June after a long fight with kidney disease. 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 $3,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 7 July.
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 Dylan 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 $3,700 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,900
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100
• Transport of the deceased: $240
• Memorial gathering for the family: $460
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Good luck, Aaliyah. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. Love from Miami.
I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up. God bless!
hope things get better soon, Aaliyah. This could happen to any of us. I hope August is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Sending love, Aaliyah. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Bekasi donated after I showed her your page.
Good luck, Aaliyah. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Best of luck, Aaliyah. Hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
