Kato, my brother, passed away on 25 August after complications from pneumonia. He was 63 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 September. 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 Kato 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 $650 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $155 • Funeral home services and casket: $440 • Transport of the deceased: $55 If you're reading this, thank you.
