Siddharth, my husband, passed away on 13 May after a short illness. He was 71 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 28 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 Siddharth 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: • Memorial gathering for the family: $35 • Transport of the deceased: $35 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $180 Thank you for reading my story. - Prachi
