Alexander, my grandfather, passed away on 14 December after a short illness. He was 76 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 $3,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 December.
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 Alexander 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 $3,300 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,900
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $690
• Transport of the deceased: $520
• Memorial gathering for the family: $190
Thanks for reading all this.

Stay strong, Cooper. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Townsville.
rooting for you, Cooper. Hope you get there. After 14 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Townsville.
