Cleveland
Gerald, my father, passed away on 2 May after a stroke. He was 85 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 $4,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 May. 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 Gerald 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 $4,800 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,900 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $2,050 • Transport of the deceased: $370 • Memorial gathering for the family: $480 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Faith

    Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

    Trustworthy helper

    I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.
