Farewell fund for Wyatt: help Shawn's family in San Diego

Shawn lost his husband suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $6,000.

🇺🇸 San Diego, California, United States1,689 views
Wyatt, my husband, passed away on 24 June after a road accident. He was 27 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 $6,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 June. 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 Wyatt 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 $6,000 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $2,050 • Memorial gathering for the family: $470 • Funeral home services and casket: $3,480 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Shawn
