Vandana, my grandmother, passed away on 30 August after a stroke. She was 42 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 $900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 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 Vandana 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 $900 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $230
• Memorial gathering for the family: $50
• Funeral home services and casket: $620
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
