Funeral costs for Shankar's sister, Lavanya

Lavanya, my sister, passed away on 13 November after complications from pneumonia. She was 66 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 $500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 November. 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 Lavanya 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 $500 goes: • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $120 • Funeral home services and casket: $330 • Transport of the deceased: $50 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
