Beau, my father, passed away on 22 August after a short illness. 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 $5,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 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 Beau 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 $5,000 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,250 • Memorial gathering for the family: $330 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,420 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

      So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Surat.

        It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 23 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
