Usha, my grandmother, passed away on 15 September after a stroke. She was 77 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 September.
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 Usha 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 Salem hospice.
Where the $800 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $60
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $180
• Funeral home services and casket: $560
With deep gratitude,
Garima

shared it with a few friends. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Shared it with a few friends. Don't give up. All the best
Hope it all works out, Garima. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
