Gaurav, my husband, passed away on 18 August after a stroke. He was 90 years old. He 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 25 August. 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 Gaurav 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: • Funeral home services and casket: $400 • Transport of the deceased: $35 • Memorial gathering for the family: $65 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
