Frank, my father, passed away on 30 August after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 22 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 $4,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 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 Frank to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a neighborhood youth program. Where the $4,000 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $660 • Funeral home services and casket: $3,150 • Transport of the deceased: $190 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Adeline
