Umesh, my grandfather, passed away on 29 May after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 70 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 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 Umesh 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 Bengaluru hospice.
Where the $700 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $70
• Funeral home services and casket: $510
• Transport of the deceased: $120
Thanks for being kind about this.
