Sharon, my wife, passed away on 6 October after a short illness. 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 $5,850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 20 October. 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 Sharon 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 $5,850 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,000 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,950 • Transport of the deceased: $510 • Memorial gathering for the family: $390 Glad we found this place. - Leonardo
