Funeral expenses for Jessica Tomlinson
Donation protected
Hi everyone, I am fundraising to help with Jessica's funeral expenses. She was 38 and her death was unexpected. Jess did not have burial insurance and the funeral home is unwilling to take anything other than full payment in order to cremate her or to have any type of funeral for her. Jessica's older sister Jennifer is having to figure this out on her own. Jennifer is an amazing person who would give anyone in need the shirt of her back. Jen does not come from money, but her and her family have always been the type of people to say "If we've got it then you've got it" whether it was their last dollar or food from the cabinets. It's heartbreaking to know that she is having to navigate this without any kind of insurance. Noone in the family is able to get a loan to get this taken care of with the funeral home. Cremation alone is $3,000 minimum. A burial is $6,000. Her family has no way to pay in full for this, so her body will be held until it can be done. Please, if anyone can spare anything at all to go towards a cremation or burial, the family will be so thankful. Please find it in your hearts to donate to a family in need of your kindness. I'm working on getting a better picture of Jess, I just wanted this out there as soon as possible because they need help now.
