Pankaj, my grandfather, passed away on 13 October after complications from pneumonia. He was 62 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 $4,700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 28 October.
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 Pankaj 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 $4,700 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,650
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,300
• Transport of the deceased: $370
• Memorial gathering for the family: $380
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope it all works out, Suresh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Quezon City.
Sending good thoughts, Suresh. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Messina
Praying for you, Suresh. Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out!
Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Sending love. Shared this with my family. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Glasgow
Hope things get better soon, Suresh. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
