Cremation for Sigurd Swingle

Donation protected
My Uncle Sigurd Swingle was born April 7th 1953. He passed away unexpectedly early Sunday morning November 29th 2015 at Orchard Grove Rehabilitaion center. Sig was the last of his generation of Swingles. He was the baby of the family and joined all of his siblings and parents in heaven. His father was Dr. Alvin Swingle and mother Zola Swingle. He had three brothers Alvin, Frank, and Jon (my father) . His sister Jonina is also among the angles. I was and am the remaining family here that cared for my uncle. He had no children of his own nor a wife. I was always very close with my uncle and would like to ensure him at the very least a cremation. Due to unforseen circumstances and a lack of finances I am seeking help from anyone who is able. I feel ashamed that the situation is this dire. But I cannot turn my back on my family. I am a mother of three, go to school full time, and work two jobs on the weekend. I would love to give my uncle a beautiful funeal but know that is just not possible. Direct Cremation is $1500.00. Thank you to all that have taken the time to read this. Thank you to all who are able to give  .50 more than what we have is a big help! I Cannot begin to thank you enough.
More about Sig:
Anyone who knew Sig knows how outgoing and adventerous he was. He had a bright smile and a tenacious soul. He loved music and enjoyed playing guitar. When he was able to garden he put his heart and soul into it never letting his disability get to him. Sig was a fighter and could be a tough cookie to handle. But I love my uncle and want to ensure he is taken care of for his final moments here.I just want to give my uncle what I believe everyone in death deserves.

  I am working with Florin Funeral Services here in Benton Harbor MI. We need $1,500.00 to at the very least have my uncle cremated. I am at a loss here and feel helpless. If anyone could help my family I would forever be grateful.
