Stefan, my grandfather, passed away on 16 November after a road accident. He was 82 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 $5,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 November. 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 Stefan 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 $5,000 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,600 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $860 • Transport of the deceased: $270 • Memorial gathering for the family: $270 Glad we found this place. - Renate
