Pongsak, my grandfather, passed away on 7 May after complications from pneumonia. He was 68 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 $1,200 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 May. 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 Pongsak 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 $1,200 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $600 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $360 • Transport of the deceased: $145 • Memorial gathering for the family: $95 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
