Brian, my brother, passed away on 16 July after a sudden heart attack. He was 92 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 $1,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 24 July. 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 Brian 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 $1,650 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $165 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300 • Transport of the deceased: $185 Every share and every dollar helps.

      Memorial gathering for the family is $165 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Ask me anything else.

  • Take care, Dustin. This could happen to any of us. All the best
