Savar
Salma, my sister, passed away on 9 June after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 90 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $700 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 Salma 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 a neighborhood youth program. Where the $700 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $420 • Memorial gathering for the family: $45 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $235 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sabbir.

    • Sending good thoughts, Sabbir. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless

        thinking of you and your family. Hope you get there. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

          Rooting for you, Sabbir. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Gold Coast donated after I showed her your page. God bless.

          • Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Latina so I could bring a meal. Love from Onitsha.
