Mazen, my brother, passed away on 3 August after a short illness. He was 88 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 $1,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 16 August. 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 Mazen 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 $1,650 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $320 • Transport of the deceased: $350 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $980 Every share and every dollar helps. - Manal
