Freddy's Funeral Expenses

Donation protected
My name is Eileen and I'm starting this fund to help with funeral expenses for my brother, (Freddy) Frederick L Pettit III.
My brother was born with Cerebral Palsy and lived a fairly good simple life for 45 years. He had many surgeries on his legs growing up.
And never knowing he had a congential heart condition up until the middle of July of this year. Since the middle of July he had been on life support 3 times before his passing on Sept. 4, 2016.
In the last 2 months his heart, kidneys and lungs were failing him.  
We were not prepared for his death. We knew it would be sometime soon but not this soon. Our father and step mother tried selling their brand new camper they have a prospective buyer but nothing definite yet.  I'm trying to sell his electric wheel chair which was his way of getting around for the last few years.
I guess we didn't realize that you needed so much money down before you could make the arrangements for your loved one to be buried. Money that we just don't have.  
So I'm asking for donations in any amount that can help with funeral expenses. I would like to have my brother buried as soon as possible it just upsets me so that his remains have to stay at the funeral home until we give at least a down payment which is in the thousands of dollars. This money is needed ASAP
The money will be used for all funeral expenses that are needed for the family during this time of hardship.
I am so very grateful for anyone who can donate any amount so I can give my brother a place to finally rest.
Bless you all and your families.
