René, my husband, passed away on 19 September after a road accident. He was 37 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 $1,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 October. 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 René 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 $1,250 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $125 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $960 • Memorial gathering for the family: $165 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Juliette
