Jason Eugene Burke Funeral Fund

Donation protected
Saturday, September 27th, 2014 was supposed to be the happiest day of my brother Jason's life. He was supposed to wake up and put on his suit, shave his face with artistic precision and walk out the door to his wedding. My family and I were going to get dressed up and celebrate the unity of our brother and his fiance. 

Instead, we each got phone calls informing us that Jason had passed away late night/early morning. 
You can't imagine the devastation and deep pain my siblings and I feel losing our brother, or the hysteria engulfing my mother who now has to bury her first born son. No mother should have to bury her own child.

Jason Eugene Burke was the realest guy I've ever known. A geniune person: he told you exactly how it was and didn't care what anyone thought of him. He only thought of everyone else. He taught all of us to give and to just keep giving-even when he had nothing (which was often). All he ever wanted was for everyone to be happy and safe. 
I will miss him so, so much, as will the rest of my family.  

Unfortunately, we do not have the money to give him a proper funeral. Less than two months ago we buried my Nana and our mother is sick with Essential Thrombocythemia Myelofribrosis and is currently undergoing chemotherapy. Between house bills, previous funeral costs, hospital bills and life, we don't know where we will get the money to bury our Jason and we want more than anything, other than bringing him back, to give him the funeral he deserves. 

As we scrape together funds, it wouldn't hurt to ask for some help. Please, if you are in any way able, help us afford my brother's funeral. Help us lay him to rest.

With Love,
the Burke and Dineen family
