William, my husband, passed away on 13 December after a stroke. He was 27 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 $4,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 31 December. 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 William 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 $4,250 goes: โ€ข Memorial gathering for the family: $230 โ€ข Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300 โ€ข Funeral home services and casket: $2,720 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Rebecca

    wishing you peace, Rebecca. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out.
