David Teall. Funeral and Headstone

Donation protected
If you could please take the time to read this: Hi my name is Myllena and I’m writing this to help a very caring family that I know. Sadly their family member was taken too soon at only 24 years old. David passed away suddenly in the night due to an unknown cause. He was so young, he had no money set aside for a rainy day. His family just lost his uncle 5 months ago and had to pay for that service too out of pocket. Also his aunt hasn’t been able to work for 2 years. She gave all that she had to give on her brother’s funeral not anticipating that she would have to pay for another one this close in time. You don’t normally prepare to say goodbye to a loved one, especially not a 24 year old who was supposed to have many years ahead of him. This family is VERY small yet close, but the money just isn’t there. Due to his small stature and being a special Ed student,David was often bullied and left out. He was raised by his aunt along side his best friend, his younger sister. No matter what he went through he still was the kindest most innocent soul you’d ever meet. David was Incapable of hatred and wore his heart on his sleeves. He was a very generous and loving soul. He would give anything to anyone in need at anytime. Some nice examples are, he used to go shovel driveways for elderly/handicap neighbors and run from them when they tried to stick money in his pocket. He loved to mow lawns, so if he noticed it needed to be done, he’d take it upon himself to ask if they needed/wanted his help! David loved to work on cars in his spare times. Working mechanically on real cars as well as building model cars. His dream car was an 69 el Camino and unfortunately his life was cut much too short and he wasn’t able to achieve that goal in life. He loved fishing, camping, video games, just having as much fun as he could and he loved to smile ear to ear. David was very religious and loved sharing about God. He was very proud of his faith and was a light in our lives. I hold his family very near and dear to my heart. They are literally the sweetest family I’ve ever met. They have been there for me more times than I can count despite being thousands of miles away from me. I can genuinely say I love them will all my heart. Right from the start they, welcomed me with open arms. They have shown me what pure love looks like and consider me family. It hurts me to see them struggle during such a painful time. They are striving for a nice service to say goodbye to David but due to the funeral they had only 5 months ago for his uncle, they are struggling to pay for this one. No one should have to worry about not being able to bury their brother, nephew, friend, and son. They are seeking that closure to celebrate David’s life and to say goodbye. So in this time of grief, I ask if you can find it in your heart to donate what you can. Losing a loved one, let alone two in the same year, is very difficult and heartbreaking as you can imagine. All money will go to his aunt linny that raised him. Thank you so much for your time and generosity. God bless.
