Kshitija, my sister, passed away on 16 September after a stroke. She was 61 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 $550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 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 Kshitija 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 $550 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $290 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $170 • Transport of the deceased: $40 • Memorial gathering for the family: $50 If you're reading this, thank you. - Sandesh

          The list at the bottom is the whole picture. funeral home services and casket is the biggest at $290. Fair thing to want to know.
