Farewell fund for Usain: help Glenroy's family in Mandeville
Glenroy lost his grandfather suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $850.
🇯🇲 Mandeville, Manchester, Jamaica610 views
Usain, my grandfather, passed away on 13 July after a short illness. He was 88 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 $850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 July.
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 Usain 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 $850 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $310
• Funeral home services and casket: $460
• Memorial gathering for the family: $80

Sending love, Glenroy. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
