Tadhg, my brother, passed away on 15 December after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 49 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 $1,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 31 December.
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 Tadhg 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 Kilkenny hospice.
Where the $1,700 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $290
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $940
• Transport of the deceased: $470
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
