Cremation for Carlos Boll

Hi my friends, this is Tanya in Decatur GA, a long time friend of Carlos'. As it still sinks in that Carlos is no longer with us, some practical matters must be addressed. The Medical Examiner's office has been unable to locate any next of kin but has stated it's okay for his friends to arrange cremation. Otherwise he will be buried in a county pauper's grave (to which Carlos might say, Lordy Lordy Lordy). The official cause of death is COPD according to the Medical Examiner. It appears that Carlos transitioned peacefully in his sleep.

Atlanta Crematory will be handling the cremation. The cost is $1295 plus any fees for credit card payments or bank fees. If you can chip in it will be much appreciated. There will be further discussion as to what to do with the cremains and possibly an online memorial service. Please refer to the Facebook page Remembering Carlos for more info. Thank you so very much for your friendship and caring for our dear friend Carlos.
