Gleb, my grandfather, passed away on 27 March after complications from pneumonia. He was 49 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 $2,050 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 April. 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 Gleb 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 local food bank. Where the $2,050 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,250 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $580 • Transport of the deceased: $115 • Memorial gathering for the family: $105 Glad we found this place. - Milena
