Help Ramesh lay Geeta to rest with dignity in Mumbai

After the sudden passing of Geeta, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.

Geeta, my sister, passed away on 8 March after complications from pneumonia. She was 46 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 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 Geeta 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 $550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $400 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $80 • Transport of the deceased: $35 • Memorial gathering for the family: $35 Thanks for reading all this.

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ramesh.

    • Ramesh K. KashyapOwnerAnswer

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. funeral home services and casket comes first ($400) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.

  • Amelia S. Simpson

    Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. After 18 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
