Dinesh, my husband, passed away on 11 September after a short illness. 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 $4,250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 22 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 Dinesh 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 neighborhood youth program. Where the $4,250 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $2,350 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $1,200 • Transport of the deceased: $460 • Memorial gathering for the family: $240 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    best of luck, Yash. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.

    • Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope November is when things finally get easier. All the best.

      • Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Manila so I could bring a meal
