Chaminda, my father, passed away on 25 September after a stroke. He was 79 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 $450 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 5 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 Chaminda 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 $450 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $55 • Transport of the deceased: $80 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $315 Glad we found this place. - Sampath
