Funeral costs for Cengiz's grandfather, Gökhan
After the sudden passing of Gökhan, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
Updates from Cengiz
Good news. Because of your gifts ($301 in total) the plan for cemetery plot and burial fees is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Update from Istanbul: I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. We're at 26% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Thank you all. We're at 15% now ($130). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

Hope you get there. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
wishing you peace, Cengiz. Shared it with a few friends. After 23 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Berlin.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Cengiz
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. funeral home services and casket comes first ($490) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.
Sending good thoughts, Cengiz. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 20 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care!
