Arif, my grandfather, passed away on 9 July after a short illness. He was 59 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 $450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 July.
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 Arif 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 $450 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $220
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $125
• Transport of the deceased: $35
• Memorial gathering for the family: $70
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you, Rahima. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Jessore so I could bring a meal. Love from Gazipur.
Hope you get there. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Rajshahi.
So sorry you're going through this, Rahima. Shared this with my family. God bless.
Praying for you, Rahima. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
Thanks for sharing this, Rahima. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Sending love, Rahima. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Novosibirsk.
