Jun, my grandfather, passed away on 14 August after a stroke. 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 $400 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 September. 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 Jun 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 the Quezon City hospice. Where the $400 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $70 • Transport of the deceased: $30 • Funeral home services and casket: $300 With deep gratitude, Aileen
