Ryan, my father, passed away on 17 September after a road accident. He was 41 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 27 September. 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 Ryan 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 a local food bank. Where the $4,550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,200 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,800 • Transport of the deceased: $180 • Memorial gathering for the family: $370 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Charlotte

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Charlotte.

        Funeral home services and casket is $2,200 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Ask me anything else.

      Praying for you, Charlotte. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to 6th of October City so I could bring a meal. Thinking of San Diego.

          This could happen to any of us. After 7 years in retail I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Blessings.
