Gaurav, my grandfather, passed away on 6 April after a sudden heart attack. He was 91 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 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 Gaurav to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a neighborhood youth program.
Where the $550 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $250
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $220
• Transport of the deceased: $60
• Memorial gathering for the family: $20
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Updates from Geeta
Good news. Because of your gifts ($79 in total) I made the first payment toward memorial gathering for the family. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
