Ramesh, my father, passed away on 11 September after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 32 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 $2,550 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 27 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 Ramesh 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 $2,550 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $180 • Transport of the deceased: $200 • Funeral home services and casket: $2,170 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Harsh
