Robert, my grandfather, passed away on 19 December after complications from pneumonia. He was 82 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 $2,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 January. 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 Robert 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 $2,500 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $390 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,600 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $510 If you're reading this, thank you.

Updates from Dylan

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($485 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 13% now ($330). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts.

    Praying for you. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Kasarani.

      Stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Johannesburg this morning.
