Rakib, my grandfather, passed away on 7 January after a sudden heart attack. He was 54 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 16 January. 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 Rakib 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 a local food bank. Where the $550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $280 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $185 • Transport of the deceased: $45 • Memorial gathering for the family: $40 Thank you for reading my story.
