Joseph, my uncle, passed away on 15 September after a short illness. He was 49 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 $4,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 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 Joseph 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 $4,600 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,850 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,400 • Memorial gathering for the family: $350 If you're reading this, thank you.
