Ekow, my father, passed away on 19 December after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 53 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 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 Ekow 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 $600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $340
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $155
• Transport of the deceased: $65
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Thinking of you, Ekow. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
