Jayanthi, my wife, passed away on 8 July after complications from pneumonia. She was 24 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 $900 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 26 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 Jayanthi 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 local food bank. Where the $900 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $510 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260 • Transport of the deceased: $90 • Memorial gathering for the family: $40 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
