David, my brother, passed away on 13 May after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 35 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 $4,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 May. 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 David 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 $4,700 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,900 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,050 • Transport of the deceased: $350 • Memorial gathering for the family: $400 Every share and every dollar helps. - Patrick

      • Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Manchester

        • Hope things get better soon, Patrick. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Kilkenny donated after I showed her your page
