Carol, my sister, passed away on 14 September after a road accident. She was 84 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 $5,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 October. 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 Carol 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 $5,350 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $3,250 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,450 • Transport of the deceased: $430 • Memorial gathering for the family: $220 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Heather
