José, my grandfather, passed away on 8 May after a sudden heart attack. He was 46 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 $4,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 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 José 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 $4,500 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $180
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $820
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
