Farhana, my mother, passed away on 21 August after a road accident. She was 59 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 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 Farhana 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 $650 goes: โ€ข Cemetery plot and burial fees: $280 โ€ข Funeral home services and casket: $330 โ€ข Memorial gathering for the family: $40 Every share and every dollar helps. - Pavel

  • is there any paperwork, like the funeral home quote, that backs this up?

    • Pavel BiswasOwnerAnswer

      I sent the funeral home quote in when I posted. I'll upload a redacted copy this week. Appreciate you taking the time.

  • Keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.

    • Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope November is when things finally get easier.

      • How is Pavel doing now?

        • Stay strong, Pavel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Blessings

          • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Pavel?

            • Pavel BiswasOwnerAnswer

              Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about cemetery plot and burial fees, advice is welcome too. Good question.

            • You're not alone, Pavel. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Thane.
