Ryan, my husband, passed away on 2 January after a short illness. He was 24 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 $5,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 January. 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 Ryan 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 local food bank. Where the $5,600 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,750 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $2,150 • Transport of the deceased: $360 • Memorial gathering for the family: $340 With deep gratitude, Angela
