Ishita, my sister, passed away on 27 March after a long fight with kidney disease. 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 $3,900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 6 April.
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 Ishita 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 $3,900 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,500
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $820
• Transport of the deceased: $340
• Memorial gathering for the family: $240
Thanks for reading all this.

Sending love, Yash. Looking forward to the next update. All the best
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Yash?
Thank you. If you're in Burnaby I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Fresno so I could bring a meal. All the best
So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
Hope it all works out, Yash. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Burnaby.

Hope it all works out, Yash. Hope this works out for you. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless
Best of luck, Yash. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Wellington this morning. All the best
Sending good thoughts. Shared it with a few friends. After 28 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
