Gerald, my father, passed away on 26 December after a short illness. He was 55 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 $3,400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 January. 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 Gerald 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 $3,400 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,200 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $720 • Transport of the deceased: $230 • Memorial gathering for the family: $250 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Aubree
