Jacques, my uncle, passed away on 17 August after a road accident. He was 77 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 $3,450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 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 Jacques 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 $3,450 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,150 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $810 • Transport of the deceased: $250 • Memorial gathering for the family: $240 Thanks for being kind about this.
