Aaron, my grandfather, passed away on 20 October after a sudden heart attack. He was 48 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 $6,200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 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 Aaron 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 $6,200 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $4,550 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,100 • Transport of the deceased: $360 • Memorial gathering for the family: $190 Thanks for reading all this. - Ryan

            Good luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Kakamega so I could bring a meal. All the best.
