Saying goodbye to Miles - help with funeral expenses
Harold lost his uncle suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $3,700.

Miles, my uncle, passed away on 20 July after a stroke. He was 63 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 $3,700 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 Miles 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 Edinburgh hospice.
Where the $3,700 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,300
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $600
• Transport of the deceased: $510
• Memorial gathering for the family: $290
With deep gratitude,
Harold

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 33 people at work.
Thinking of you and your family, Harold. Looking forward to the next update.
hang in there, Harold. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 36 people at work. God bless.
Praying for you, Harold. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Edinburgh!
