Miguel, my grandfather, passed away on 23 June after a sudden heart attack. He was 29 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 $3,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 7 July. 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 Miguel 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 $3,650 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,800 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,250 • Transport of the deceased: $320 • Memorial gathering for the family: $280 I hope life is good to you.
