Rajesh, my husband, passed away on 19 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 86 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 $800 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 September. 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 Rajesh 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 $800 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $630 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $135 • Memorial gathering for the family: $35 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Pooja
