Arlington
Robert, my husband, passed away on 16 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 44 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 $4,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 September. 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 Robert 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 a neighborhood youth program. Where the $4,650 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,350 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,800 • Transport of the deceased: $240 • Memorial gathering for the family: $260 With deep gratitude, Charlotte
