Rowan, my husband, passed away on 20 July after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 54 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 $2,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 July. 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 Rowan 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 the Laredo hospice. Where the $2,600 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $410 • Transport of the deceased: $370 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,820 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Updates from Ryan

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($2,005 in total) the plan for cemetery plot and burial fees is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
