Evelyn, my sister, passed away on 21 March after a short illness. She was 60 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $4,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 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 Evelyn 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 $4,150 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $150 • Funeral home services and casket: $3,100 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $900 Glad we found this place. - Deborah

        Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.

          reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
