Nolan, my grandfather, passed away on 16 September after a short illness. He was 53 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 $6,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 6 October. 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 Nolan 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 $6,000 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $4,200 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100 • Transport of the deceased: $500 • Memorial gathering for the family: $200 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

      So sorry you're going through this, Isabelle. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.
