Idris, my grandfather, passed away on 7 May after a sudden heart attack. He was 49 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 $3,100 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 24 May.
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 Idris 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 $3,100 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $2,050
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $500
• Transport of the deceased: $280
• Memorial gathering for the family: $270

Keep going, Rami. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Thinking of you, Rami. Hope this works out for you. All the best.
You're not alone, Rami. This could happen to any of us
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rami.
Funeral home services and casket is $2,050 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Ask me anything else.
Best of luck, Rami. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Thanks for sharing this, Rami. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
thinking of you and your family, Rami. Hope you get there.
Hang in there, Rami. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care
Hope it all works out. Shared this with my family. After 20 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Rami. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care
