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
