Mason, my brother, passed away on 17 September after complications from pneumonia. He was 33 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 $3,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 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 Mason 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 $3,550 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,500
• Transport of the deceased: $195
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $855
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

wishing you the best, Benjamin. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Benjamin. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Winnipeg.
Good luck, Benjamin. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
