Help family bury Butch as he doesnt want cremated

In July 2020 , Butch was diagnosed with stage 4 small cell lung cancer . It was in his lymph nodes and bone marrow. He is a fighter and has been fighting this horribly painful cancer with chemo . He has had to have his lung drained 2 times and was unable to breathe properly until they were able to get all of the infection out. Butchs Pain got worse and he admitted to the hospital where a CT was completed. Butch was just advised the chemo didnt do anything to shrink the cancer and it's worse in the bones and that's the cause of his pain. He is in the hospital trying g to get the pain under control and the oncologists will be working on a plan to move forward as they advised there isnt really much they can do becuase it's so aggressive. The family has planned for a cremation when the time came, however , when talking to Butch we realized he  didnt want cremated. His wish was to be buried near his parents.  We as a family would love to make is last wish come true when the time comes to lay him to rest in burial and not cremation.  If you can help us make his wish come true that would be appreciated . Anything helps and if you cant please just keep him in your prayers.
