Rajkot

Madhavan, my uncle, passed away on 9 July after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 49 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 July. 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 Madhavan 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 $700 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $380 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $240 • Transport of the deceased: $35 • Memorial gathering for the family: $45 Thank you so much.
