Kamini, my grandmother, passed away on 14 September after a stroke. She was 28 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 $1,300 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 20 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 Kamini 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 $1,300 goes: • Transport of the deceased: $85 • Funeral home services and casket: $930 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $285 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Nadia
