Saba, my sister, passed away on 12 July after complications from pneumonia. She was 32 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 $610 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 1 August. 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 Saba 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 local food bank. Where the $610 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $330 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $210 • Transport of the deceased: $65 • Memorial gathering for the family: $5 Thank you so much. - Roman

    Thinking of you and your family, Roman. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Dhaka so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Sheffield.
