Emily, my sister, passed away on 5 September after a sudden heart attack. She was 83 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $2,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 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 Emily 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $2,700 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $830 • Memorial gathering for the family: $340 • Funeral home services and casket: $1,530 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
