Dear Johnny,
My name is Dave and I’m writing to ask for help. My mom, Mary, passed away in July 2019. She was 86 years old and suffered with alzheimer’s and she was diabetic.
She was the greatest mom a guy could have.
My father died when I was 2 years old and it only made me that much closer to my mom. After she died, my brother and two sisters and I were able to pay for a funeral, but it cost almost $10,000. It’s been 4 years now and my family and I can’t afford to get her a headstone.
Each of us kids have our own families and we have tried to save money for a headstone over the years, but it just never happens. It’s hard to go to the cemetery and see her grave marked with only a small metal nameplate on a stake in the ground. I would love to honor my mom and finally mark her grave in the proper way.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my letter and if anyone can help I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Dave
