It is with a broken heart that I do this my son Christopher James. Elberth passed away on the 20th of October needless to say his family and friends are  overcome with grief and one of the unfortunate byproducts of modern society are  the prices of final expenses as much as it distresses me to go to an open forum and ask for funds unfortunately it is the situation that I currently find myself in along with the grief of losing our beloved Christopher who faithfully and with quite a bit of pride served as a combat Medic in Afghanistan we now have to find a way to afford burying him so I asked friends and family to contribute, donate anything you can do to help in any way you can ,thank you ,God bless you
