Please help my cousin Jenna and Steven's father Jerry Aluyon get back to the United States from the Philippines.
His passing today, April 2, 2017, brings us sorrow knowing that he lost his wife Elizabeth less than 2 years ago.  After going through a hard bereavement with the loss of the love of his life, he decided to take a well deserved vacation with his family to the Philippines.
Uncle Jerry has not been back in the Philippines for 41 years, since he was only 17 years old.  His family relocated to United States for a better life and opportunity.  It is in the United States where he eventually met his future wife, Elizabeth.  They're survived by their two children, Steven and Jenna and grandson Paxton.  
It is exactly one week when his dream holiday was cut short when his precious heart failed to beat.  Our entire family is overwhelmed with sorrow, sadness and confusion.  
The hospital in the Philippines will not release his remains until the bill is paid.  At the moment the hospital bill is $5,300.00 USD.  This bill does not include doctor fees and medications and the cost to fly Uncle Jerry’s remains back to the United States.  The funeral home made an arrangement with the hospital to release the body with a down payment of USD 1000.00 because it is of extreme urgency that  Uncle Jerry be moved to the funeral facility since the hospital morgue is not equipped for preservation.
Our entire family are counting on your compassion and  please help my cousin with their current monetary hardship.  They are facing incredible financial hardship at this time.  If you could make a monetary contribution in any amount, we will be forever grateful.  Please Help us.

On behalf of our entire family we would like to extend our deepest gratitude and appreciation for your well wishes, your condolences and monetary help.
