Patrick, my brother, passed away on 20 September after a short illness. He was 56 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 $4,850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 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 Patrick 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 the Leeds hospice. Where the $4,850 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,150 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $970 • Transport of the deceased: $470 • Memorial gathering for the family: $260 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Doris
