Bring Amanda's Brother Jonathan Home for Final Goodbye

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Amanda Burton. I am raising money for my little brother Jonathan Schutte's funeral costs. I would like to have him cremated so we can bring him home from alabama to washington state where all of our family is. I need help with plane tickets for me and me 3 kids to bring him home, along with the ceremony that will be held there. My brother was always there for me and he was a great uncle to my kids. He was only 33yrs old and had the biggest heart. He was kind and compassionate and always there to lend a hand. He gave the best hugs and always lent an ear when you needed to talk. He was suffering from depression and sever anxiety a lot of it social anxiety. He was having a hard time finding jobs...he couldn't handle it when people were mean and had a hard time holding a job when they would get upset with him. I don't think he could handle the tough spots in life anymore and he just left our home in pain and it turned into a suicide mission....now he's gone. He was never a violent person he could barely speak up for himself. When someone was mean or upset it ate at him and made him sad. He was always there when someone needed him even if he was hurting too. He loved to play board games with his nieces and nephews and would always get giddy like a little kid himself when he found something he liked especially if it was a game the kids would enjoy....or when he made ridiculous tasting meals with things that probably shouldn't go together, but we always tried them. He was a bright light and a warm soul, this world was just too hard for him. Anything helps so I can bring him home to Washington.... if you took the time to read about him here thankyou. I don't know how much everything is going to be and I don't know how to do this. But if you know a loved one that has been closing themselves off slowly please take the time to go be with them and give them a hug because you can't know how much pain they might be in, and one minute they can be there and the next they arent...so just keep them close...because it hurts really bad when they are gone.
