Help Sebastián lay Gabriel to rest with dignity in Jacksonville
After the sudden passing of Gabriel, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Gabriel, my uncle, passed away on 12 July after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 51 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 $4,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 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 Gabriel 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 $4,250 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $910
• Transport of the deceased: $460
• Memorial gathering for the family: $380
Thank you so much.

Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 26 people at work.
it takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Jacksonville.
Sending love, Sebastián. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Jacksonville.

So sorry you're going through this, Sebastián. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
You're not alone, Sebastián. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
thinking of you and your family, Sebastián. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Hope it all works out, Sebastián. Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from San Francisco.
Hope things get better soon, Sebastián. Hope you get there. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Tarragona
