Romain, my uncle, passed away on 8 November after a short illness. He was 84 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 $4,500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 November. 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 Romain 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 $4,500 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $480 • Funeral home services and casket: $3,750 • Memorial gathering for the family: $270 Every share and every dollar helps.
