Jürgen, my grandfather, passed away on 5 March after complications from pneumonia. He was 42 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 $3,200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 March.
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 Jürgen 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 $3,200 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,450
• Memorial gathering for the family: $310
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,440
If you're reading this, thank you.

hope this works out for you. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Hope it all works out, Hermann. Shared it with a few friends. All the best
this could happen to any of us. Thinking of Cologne.
hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Sacramento donated after I showed her your page. Take care
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Cologne
Thinking of you, Hermann. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings
