Saying goodbye to Keith - help with funeral expenses
After the sudden passing of Keith, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
🇺🇸 Reading, Pennsylvania, United States2,011 views
Keith, my father, passed away on 25 August after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 90 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 $4,450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 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 Keith 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 $4,450 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,200
• Transport of the deceased: $450
• Memorial gathering for the family: $300
Thank you so much.

Praying for you, Evelyn. Looking forward to the next update. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Reading.
Hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. After 8 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
sending love, Evelyn. Hope this works out for you. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Coventry
Take care, Evelyn. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Reading.
Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Seongnam
