🇬🇧 United Kingdom5,093 views
Reagan, my grandmother, passed away on 23 September after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 90 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $4,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 9 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 Reagan 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 $4,600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,000
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300
• Memorial gathering for the family: $300
If you're reading this, thank you.

Thinking of you and your family, Brian. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
thanks for sharing this, Brian. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
