Christopher, my father, passed away on 15 February after a stroke. He was 38 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 $4,800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 February.
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 Christopher 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 $4,800 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,800
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $2,100
• Transport of the deceased: $560
• Memorial gathering for the family: $340
Every share and every dollar helps.
Updates from Eleanor
Thank you all. We're at 56% now ($2,685). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for cemetery plot and burial fees is now scheduled.

Hang in there, Eleanor. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Noida.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
