Victor, my uncle, passed away on 3 April after complications from pneumonia. He was 73 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 $1,050 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 9 April.
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 Victor 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 $1,050 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $760
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $210
• Transport of the deceased: $60
• Memorial gathering for the family: $20
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
