Paresh, my husband, passed away on 14 July after a sudden heart attack. He was 78 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 $950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 1 August.
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 Paresh 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 neighborhood youth program.
Where the $950 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $610
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $230
• Transport of the deceased: $40
• Memorial gathering for the family: $70
Thanks for reading all this.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ketki.
Sure. The biggest one is funeral home services and casket, $610. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
