Rylee, my grandmother, passed away on 9 September after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 30 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 $6,900 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 Rylee 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 $6,900 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $4,300 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,900 • Transport of the deceased: $540 • Memorial gathering for the family: $160 Thank you for reading my story.
