Easton, my brother, passed away on 9 August after a stroke. He was 71 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 $3,600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 August. 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 Easton 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 $3,600 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,050 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $820 • Transport of the deceased: $490 • Memorial gathering for the family: $240 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Leah!

    • Leah E. ParkOwnerAnswerID verifiedPhoto verified

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. funeral home services and casket comes first ($2,050) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Let me know if you want more detail.
