Suhas, my father, passed away on 6 September after a stroke. 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 $950 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 19 September.
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 Suhas 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 $950 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $590
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $250
• Transport of the deceased: $75
• Memorial gathering for the family: $35
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Updates from Shailesh
Thank you all. We're at 63% now ($601). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts.
48% there. we've started the first stage. Thank you.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($105 in total) the plan for transport of the deceased is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry!
this could happen to any of us. Sent it to 27 people at work. Greetings from Regensburg
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Nizamabad
Thank you. If you're in Nizamabad I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
praying for you, Shailesh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings
keep going, Shailesh. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
Wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Nizamabad
Good luck. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Kilkenny
Hope it all works out, Shailesh. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
