Ethan, my brother, passed away on 24 June after a sudden heart attack. He was 81 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 Ethan 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: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,150 • Transport of the deceased: $380 • Funeral home services and casket: $2,170 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Jacques
