Naresh, my brother, passed away on 11 April after a short illness. He was 55 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 23 April. 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 Naresh 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 $700 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $470 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $105 • Transport of the deceased: $65 • Memorial gathering for the family: $60 Every share and every dollar helps. - Sneha

        Thinking of you and your family, Sneha. Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from San Francisco.

            Take care, Sneha. 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.
