Nicholas, my grandfather, passed away on 17 September after a short illness. He was 54 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 $2,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 October. 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 Nicholas 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 $2,950 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $720 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,900 • Memorial gathering for the family: $330 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Danielle

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,119 in total) the plan for memorial gathering for the family is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $823 raised so far (28%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

                rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
