But first i need to say if you dont have life insurance on yourself and your family get it.
Also im just coming to you all for advice and your opinons..
You know i told you about keith well he was 23 and passed.
Well went today to what was suppose to be a little get together befre the visitation.geuss what there isnt going to be a funeral..
He came from a very poor family and they have nothing but each other and they couldnt get the mo.ney together.
I came home and made some phone calls and got them some help.
But this my question my dh and i are waiting for an insurance check for the damage during hurricane ike we received.
Do i pay for the rest of his funeral or ask his family to pay half and we pay the other.after the help he got it leaves 1900.00

He is just a second cousin but he called me aunt lisa and im really close to them all.

Lisa,
If I were in this situation I would simply decide which action I would regret the most and go with the other.
You sound like me and while the amount you mentioned is indeed a large sum it simply pales in comparison to a decision that you'll turn over and over in your mind for a long time to come if you don't go with the answer that brings you contentment.
I also wanted to tell you that you look great and your family looks like they are a fun gang!

Well...I am kinda posting after the fact but Becka is right. It is sometimes hard to decide. I try to help whenever I can, but am chosey about who I help. I have to be. I have been taken before and refuse to let it happen again. BUT....one thing a friend of mine told me a long time agao....if you give freely from your heart to someone who is in need...it will come back to you in some way. He is a retired minister and like a second father to me. Just my 2 cents. becka is right you are looking good Lisa! Hope you guys can come to one of our get togethers sometime!
Oh LeeAnn
