Gunnar, my uncle, passed away on 19 September after a stroke. He was 46 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 $5,100 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 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 Gunnar 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 the Stockholm hospice. Where the $5,100 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,600 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $910 • Transport of the deceased: $260 • Memorial gathering for the family: $330 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Leif
