Saying goodbye to Nicholas - help with funeral expenses
Nicholas passed away on 20 September; we're raising $5,550 for a respectful funeral in Riverside.

Nicholas, my husband, passed away on 20 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 77 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 $5,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 October.
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 Nicholas 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 $5,550 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $3,150
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,900
• Transport of the deceased: $500
If you're reading this, thank you.

So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best
thanks for sharing this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Colorado Springs.
