After the sudden passing of Megan, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Megan, my sister, passed away on 4 June after a short illness. She was 51 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 13 June.
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 Megan 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: $1,950
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,050
• Transport of the deceased: $530
• Memorial gathering for the family: $370
Every share and every dollar helps.

Wishing you peace, Brooks. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Kozhikode so I could bring a meal. All the best.
You're not alone. Hope you get there. Thinking of Los Angeles.
