Kelvin, my father, passed away on 2 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 86 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 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 Kelvin 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $700 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $45 • Funeral home services and casket: $530 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $125 Glad we found this place. - Comfort
