Funeral costs for Tameka's grandfather, Ricardo

Ricardo, my grandfather, passed away on 18 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 47 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 $1,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 September. 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 Ricardo 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 $1,550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $820 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $470 • Transport of the deceased: $155 • Memorial gathering for the family: $105 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
