Parvin, my wife, passed away on 1 May after a stroke. She was 34 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 $750 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 16 May. 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 Parvin 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 local food bank. Where the $750 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $410 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260 • Transport of the deceased: $75 • Memorial gathering for the family: $5 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
