Nathan, my uncle, passed away on 26 July after a sudden heart attack. He was 68 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 8 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 Nathan 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: • Transport of the deceased: $330 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,650 • Funeral home services and casket: $2,570 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

    • Lars Rick HoekstraQuestion

      is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Autumn

      • Autumn W. StantonOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

        Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. transport of the deceased comes first ($330) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. I'll keep the page updated.
