Alassane, my brother, passed away on 30 August after complications from pneumonia. He was 43 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 $3,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 September. 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 Alassane 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 $3,950 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,900 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,600 • Transport of the deceased: $260 • Memorial gathering for the family: $190 Glad we found this place. - Omar

              • Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out.

                • Hope it all works out, Omar. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
