Beau, my brother, passed away on 13 September after complications from pneumonia. He was 33 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 $5,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 24 September.
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 Beau 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 $5,550 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,450
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,350
• Transport of the deceased: $380
• Memorial gathering for the family: $370
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Breda so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Tiruchirappalli.
Sending good thoughts, Kennedy. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Cologne.
Wishing you the best, Kennedy. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
