Ben, my grandfather, passed away on 9 March after a road accident. He was 80 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 $4,750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 25 March. 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 Ben 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 $4,750 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,800 • Transport of the deceased: $190 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,760 Every share and every dollar helps.

          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. Love from Bekasi.
