Hey y’all, Krasandra here.

I really didn’t want to make a gofundme unless we absolutely had to, but we do need a little help. 

Our dad passed on November 25th, 2023- after being in the hospital for 3 weeks straight. He had stage 4 cancer, he’d been diagnosed with in 2017 and he fought so long and so hard, but his immune system failed him.!

He deserved better than what happened at the end, he truly did. We had no idea when he went in to the hospital at the beginning of November that we would lose him. I still can’t fully believe it.

He only received a small amount for social security monthly and whatever he could make from scrap, he didn’t have a lot to save. He applied for many life insurance policies but all had turned him down, we learned recently.

He really wanted to have everything covered and arranged before he went, but his condition changed so so fast, I’m now scrambling trying to locate documents and figure out what all needs paid for. He worked every single day, even sick, but everything he made went toward living.

We’ve figured most of it out at this point, but there were a couple surprises we really weren’t expecting so I’m reaching out to you all, the people who loved my dad, to hopefully be able to help us with his final expenses and cremation cost.

My dad never liked asking anyone for help and neither do I, but we really do need it at this time. 

I know at this time of year, especially, it can be hard and I know not everyone can help, but we appreciate you all and I appreciate anyone even reading this ♥️

Thank you for considering and reading our story, my family and I truly appreciate all of you.
