Kingsley, my grandfather, passed away on 20 July after a short illness. He was 45 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 July. 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 Kingsley 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 $650 goes: โ€ข Transport of the deceased: $40 โ€ข Funeral home services and casket: $360 โ€ข Cemetery plot and burial fees: $250 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

    Wishing you the best, Kunle. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 14 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.

      shared it with a few friends. After 19 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
