Amadou, my father, passed away on 23 July after complications from pneumonia. He was 50 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 $2,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 July. 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 Amadou 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 the Lyon hospice. Where the $2,250 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,150 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $750 • Transport of the deceased: $115 • Memorial gathering for the family: $235 Thank you for reading my story.
