Dedi, my grandfather, passed away on 13 November after a stroke. He was 40 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 November. 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 Dedi 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 $550 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $65 • Funeral home services and casket: $420 • Memorial gathering for the family: $65 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • Sending strength. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings

    • You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Jakarta.

      • How is Hendra doing now?

        • hope you get there. After 23 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Pune.

          • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Hendra

              It's all in the list in the story. transport of the deceased is the big one at $65, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Good question.

          • Wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in New Delhi this morning. Take care.

            • Thinking of you, Hendra. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

              • So sorry you're going through this, Hendra. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Burnaby donated after I showed her your page. All the best
