Kaylee, my sister, passed away on 18 August after a stroke. She was 39 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $4,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 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 Kaylee 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 $4,500 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $195 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $640 • Funeral home services and casket: $3,665 Thank you for reading my story. - Anthony

            Thank you. If you're in Cairns I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.

        • Wishing you peace, Anthony. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier

          • take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.

            • Hope things get better soon, Anthony. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
