Trupti, my wife, passed away on 20 July after a short illness. She was 93 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 July. 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 Trupti 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 local food bank. Where the $650 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $330 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $200 • Transport of the deceased: $45 • Memorial gathering for the family: $75 Thanks for being kind about this. - Manasi

          Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. funeral home services and casket comes first ($330) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Fair thing to want to know.
