Cremation ring and urn in honor of Barbara Ketchum

Donation protected
Hello I’m Makinzie Ketchum the granddaughter of Barbara Ketchum. I hate to have to do this but on Saturday September 9th my grandma the woman who basically raised me passed away of cardiac arrest and pneumonia.. no one was expecting this to happen like it did but it did. My grandma was a very vivacious independent woman who as most of you know didn’t like to ask for much help if any but since we were not prepared for this to happen I am VERY unprepared altogether.. her last wishes were to be cremated and spread out in our field and so that is what I’m trying to do. I have never dealt with this before at least to this extent.. so with the cost of cremation and her urn it’s definitely gonna be a pretty penny. She was a very classy and most importantly not a cheap date kinda lady! The urn I decided on is 160$ alone, but we also had picked out a ring for me (prior to this) that has some of her ashes pressed into an opal and diamond band. I always used to say when she passed away I would keep her right in my back pocket and she would go with me everywhere so getting this ring is very important to me.. since I was her caregiver for a living and she’s now gone my Job is gone now too.. as much as I hate to have to ask l honestly just need a little help with the expenses.
