Jagadish passed away on 20 November; we're raising $800 for a respectful funeral in Nashik.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India1,859 views
Jagadish, my father, passed away on 20 November after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 68 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 December.
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 Jagadish 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 $800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $410
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $320
• Transport of the deceased: $30
• Memorial gathering for the family: $40
If you're reading this, thank you.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Manila this morning. All the best
Praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Take care. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Nashik.
Wishing you peace, Venkatesh. Hope this works out for you.
