Haritha, my wife, passed away on 5 October after a stroke. She was 45 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 15 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 Haritha 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 $800 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $420 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260 • Transport of the deceased: $70 • Memorial gathering for the family: $50 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Los Angeles

    • hope it all works out, Lokesh. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.

      • Rooting for you, Lokesh. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
