Brooklyn, my sister, passed away on 29 August after a stroke. She was 86 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 $4,100 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 12 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 Brooklyn 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 $4,100 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,000
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,450
• Transport of the deceased: $410
• Memorial gathering for the family: $240
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Joseph!
wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Cox's Bazar so I could bring a meal.
sending love, Joseph. Your post was clear and honest.
