Mahesh, my husband, passed away on 31 August after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 65 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 $250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 September.
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 Mahesh 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 $250 goes:
• Transport of the deceased: $60
• Memorial gathering for the family: $35
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $155
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
