Kathleen, my grandmother, passed away on 3 June after a stroke. She was 61 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 $850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 June. 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 Kathleen 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 $850 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $490 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $250 • Transport of the deceased: $80 • Memorial gathering for the family: $30 If you're reading this, thank you.
