Landon, my brother, passed away on 17 February after a sudden heart attack. 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 $3,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 March. 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 Landon 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 $3,250 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $890 • Transport of the deceased: $400 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,960 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Avery

        • wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.

          • Thinking of you, Avery. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together

            • Good luck, Avery. Looking forward to the next update. Blessings!

              • sending strength. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
