Declan, my uncle, passed away on 13 November after a stroke. 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 $3,150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 November. 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 Declan 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 $3,150 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,250 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,050 • Transport of the deceased: $480 • Memorial gathering for the family: $370 I hope life is good to you. - Declan

  1. We're at 24% thanks to 26 of you. I made the first payment toward memorial gathering for the family. More news soon.

  2. Update from Birmingham: I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. We're at 18% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
