Columbus
Leo, my husband, passed away on 17 September after a road accident. He was 66 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 $2,900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 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 Leo 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 $2,900 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,450 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,250 • Memorial gathering for the family: $200 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Delilah
