Terry, my grandfather, passed away on 1 May after complications from pneumonia. 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 $4,100 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 May.
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 Terry 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 $4,100 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,250
• Transport of the deceased: $530
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,320
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
