Dorin, my grandfather, passed away on 15 July after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 80 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 $1,500 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 Dorin 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 the Timișoara hospice. Where the $1,500 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $920 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $390 • Transport of the deceased: $80 • Memorial gathering for the family: $110 Glad we found this place.

                Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Timișoara.

                  Thank you. If you're in Timișoara I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Good question.

              • So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Çankaya
