Valentin, my uncle, passed away on 18 December after a road accident. He was 29 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 $4,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 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 Valentin 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 $4,700 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,650 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,500 • Transport of the deceased: $340 • Memorial gathering for the family: $210 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Fabrice
