Riverside
Craig, my husband, passed away on 30 March after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 23 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 $3,750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 April. 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 Craig 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 $3,750 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,250 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $750 • Transport of the deceased: $540 • Memorial gathering for the family: $210 Glad we found this place. - Jordan
