Nasser, my father, passed away on 18 June after a sudden heart attack. He was 91 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 $3,200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 June. 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 Nasser to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to the Birmingham hospice. Where the $3,200 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,950 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $670 • Transport of the deceased: $280 • Memorial gathering for the family: $300 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

    Sending good thoughts. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

    • Rodrigo F. Sandoval

      so sorry you're going through this, Anwar. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.

      • Juan P. Delgado

        Wishing you peace, Anwar. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
