Saying goodbye to Derek - help with funeral expenses
Doris lost her husband suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $3,350.

Derek, my husband, passed away on 14 September after a stroke. He was 43 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 $3,350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 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 Derek 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 $3,350 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,700
• Memorial gathering for the family: $185
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,465
Glad we found this place.
