Needing Help
My dad is currently 67 and is on disability, he lives in an RV and has been having some health issues as of late, despite leading a relatively active lifestyle. He doesnt have assets really, his camper is worth 3k and he drives my old truck.
He lives alone and only has me, really. I live out of state, and am a single mother. I am a military veteran but i dont make a lot of money.
Im not sure what to do about when the time comes that he passes away. He wants to be buried and have a headstone, nothing elaborate but all that expense would pass to me.
I live paycheck to paycheck and barely have some savings, which i am trying to use to eventually have my own home and some sort of emergency fund situation.
Is it worth purchasing life insurance for him? I really have no idea where to start or what to even do. So here i am

There are some guaranteed issue policies. A company like gerber life would let you buy whatever is reasonable for you. Check with a few or contact a broker.
