Hridoy, my husband, passed away on 24 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 84 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 10 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 Hridoy 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: $570 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $120 • Transport of the deceased: $45 • Memorial gathering for the family: $65 With deep gratitude, Rakib

  • keep going, Rakib. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Manila.

    • Wishing you peace, Rakib. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.

      • Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Setagaya.
