Rutuja, my grandmother, passed away on 4 May after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 93 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 $850 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 24 May. 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 Rutuja 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 the Gaya hospice. Where the $850 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $630 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $120 • Transport of the deceased: $60 • Memorial gathering for the family: $40 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

  • Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless

    • Good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend!

      • Hope things get better soon, Kunal. Shared this with my family
