Aarti, my grandmother, passed away on 27 September after a sudden heart attack. She was 46 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 7 October. I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Aarti to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. The funds will be paid directly to the funeral home, and I'll share the receipt. Where the $500 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $75 • Memorial gathering for the family: $55 • Funeral home services and casket: $370 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
