Kylie passed away on 2 July; we're raising $5,950 for a respectful funeral in Springfield.
🇺🇸 United States6,845 views
Kylie, my mother, passed away on 2 July after complications from pneumonia. She was 25 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 $5,950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 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 Kylie 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 $5,950 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,550
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,650
• Transport of the deceased: $310
• Memorial gathering for the family: $440
Glad we found this place.
