Jyoti, my grandmother, passed away on 9 August after a short illness. She was 36 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 24 August. 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 Jyoti 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 $900 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $520 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $250 • Transport of the deceased: $55 • Memorial gathering for the family: $75 Thank you so much. - Manoj
