Jameson, my grandfather, passed away on 15 November after a road accident. He was 74 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 $4,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 December.
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 Jameson 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 $4,550 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,300
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,500
• Transport of the deceased: $530
• Memorial gathering for the family: $220
Thanks for reading all this.

Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 6 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
Keep going, Howard. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Thinking of you and your family, Howard. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Hope it all works out, Howard. I hope things turn around soon
so sorry you're going through this, Howard. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Good luck, Howard. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Epe this morning. Thinking of Sacramento!
Hope things get better soon. Hope you get there. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Tangier
best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
