Jonas, my brother, passed away on 31 May after a stroke. He was 39 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 $1,850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 June. 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 Jonas 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 a local food bank. Where the $1,850 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $145 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,400 • Transport of the deceased: $305 With deep gratitude, Sebastian
