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.

I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 40 people at work. Love from Montpellier
keep going. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
