Harold, my father, passed away on 9 August after a road accident. He was 36 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 $3,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 20 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 Harold 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 $3,550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,650 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $950 • Transport of the deceased: $510 • Memorial gathering for the family: $440 Thank you for reading my story. - Eugene
