Armando Funeral Expenses

Anyone who knew my uncle Armando would tell you the same things; he was a loving protective soul who would do anything for the people he loved. Armando was loved and cherished by many. The last few years were hard on him; his health was in decline and was suffering from a broken heart that none of us could seem to mend. 

He left us suddenly and unexpectedly Saturday evening to which my mother and his mother bore the difficult experience of finding him alone at rest.

When my family learned the cost of burying my uncle, it was as if the weight of the world they were already carrying wasn't heavy enough. My family is too proud to ask for help, however, we struggle and do anything and everything to support our loved ones. This death comes to our family unexpectedly and with no financial means to lay Armando to eternal rest. 

I put this out there for anyone who is willing to help my family ease the only part of this time that is relievable. I learned the financial cost of death that night; $11,000. No funeral is included in that price, no coffin to lay to eternal rest. That is the cost of a coffin to lay for the wake and cremation/burial of vault.
