Mackenzie, my wife, passed away on 27 September after a short illness. She was 52 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 $2,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 7 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 Mackenzie 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $2,000 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $260 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,400 • Transport of the deceased: $340 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • you're not alone, Peyton. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Los Angeles.
