Musyoka, my father, passed away on 5 May after a stroke. He was 22 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 $500 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 14 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 Musyoka 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 $500 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $290 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $100 • Transport of the deceased: $70 • Memorial gathering for the family: $40 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • Wishing you the best, Sarah. This could happen to any of us. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

    • Thinking of you, Sarah. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Love from Tiruchirappalli.
