Babu, my father, passed away on 12 July after a road accident. 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 $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 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 Babu 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 $600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $490
• Transport of the deceased: $35
• Memorial gathering for the family: $75
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
Updates from Rubel
Small update. $326 so far, we've started the first stage.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($105 in total) I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Wishing you the best. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
Hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Cardiff.
Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Wishing you the best, Rubel. Hope this works out for you
Wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update.
