Funeral costs for Lauren's father, Angel
Lauren lost her father suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $4,000.
🇬🇧 Liverpool, England, United Kingdom1,747 views
Angel, my father, passed away on 6 April after a sudden heart attack. He was 23 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 $4,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 13 April.
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 Angel 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 $4,000 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,200
• Memorial gathering for the family: $230
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $570
Thanks for reading all this.
