Aurora
Adrian, my brother, passed away on 2 January after a short illness. He was 88 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 $4,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 16 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 Adrian 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 $4,250 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,800 • Transport of the deceased: $280 • Funeral home services and casket: $2,170 Thank you so much. - Danielle
