Mackenzie, my grandmother, passed away on 6 May after a road accident. She was 79 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 $1,850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 May.
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 Mackenzie 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 Coventry hospice.
Where the $1,850 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $300
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,250
• Memorial gathering for the family: $300
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Keep going, Wayne. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together.
Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
praying for you, Wayne. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.
Hope it all works out, Wayne. This could happen to any of us.
