Zara, my wife, passed away on 1 June after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 72 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 $700 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 21 June. 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 Zara 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 $700 goes: โ€ข Funeral home services and casket: $440 โ€ข Cemetery plot and burial fees: $125 โ€ข Transport of the deceased: $75 โ€ข Memorial gathering for the family: $60 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Amna
