Josiah, my husband, passed away on 4 March after a short illness. He was 91 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 $3,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 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 Josiah to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a local food bank. Where the $3,250 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $390 • Funeral home services and casket: $2,700 • Memorial gathering for the family: $160 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
