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.

Updates from Brooks

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,618 in total) I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  • 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.
