Pune

Gopal, my father, passed away on 13 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 63 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 $850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 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 Gopal 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 $850 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $470 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260 • Transport of the deceased: $25 • Memorial gathering for the family: $95 If you're reading this, thank you. - Vishnu
