Emilio, my brother, passed away on 28 January after a sudden heart attack. He was 88 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 $1,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 February. 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 Emilio 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 $1,350 goes: โ€ข Cemetery plot and burial fees: $380 โ€ข Funeral home services and casket: $910 โ€ข Memorial gathering for the family: $60 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
