Eugene, my uncle, passed away on 21 August after a short illness. He was 70 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 $4,650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 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 Eugene 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 $4,650 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $430 • Funeral home services and casket: $3,950 • Transport of the deceased: $270 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Alyssa
