Help Genesis lay Aiden to rest with dignity in Birmingham
After the sudden passing of Aiden, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Aiden, my father, passed away on 12 July after complications from pneumonia. He was 91 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 $4,400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 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 Aiden 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 $4,400 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $320
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,750
• Transport of the deceased: $330
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
