Santhosh, my husband, passed away on 31 August after a stroke. He was 65 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 $650 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 4 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 Santhosh 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 $650 goes: โ€ข Funeral home services and casket: $370 โ€ข Cemetery plot and burial fees: $220 โ€ข Transport of the deceased: $60 Thanks for reading all this. - Pavithra
