Hazel, my sister, passed away on 3 September after a road accident. She was 58 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 $6,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 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 Hazel 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 $6,000 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $4,500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $890
• Transport of the deceased: $180
• Memorial gathering for the family: $430
I hope life is good to you.
- Carter
