Help Give Jonathan's Father a Dignified Funeral

My name is Jonathan, and I am raising funds to help pay for my father's funeral. My father was a good man. He was in the trades for 26 years and owned a restaurant (Sofrito's Vegas) here in Milwaukee. He was very kindhearted and always helped people whenever he could. Often times, instead of throwing food away, Juan would take the leftover food to the homeless and would even feed customers for free when they didn't have any money. He made friends wherever he went and was both the best cook and hardest worker I've ever known. He was a father, a husband, a friend, and he will be missed greatly.

UPDATE: My father's wish was that he be cremated, so that is what I will do for him. We've also found a church that has graciously offered to host his service for free; Thank you, Pastor Ray. So far, we have raised $665. I've noticed GoFundMe charges 19%. That being said family and friends have been sending funds through Zelle or other means to me (services with little to no fees). Please reach out to me if that is a better option for you. Lastly, this has lowered our costs significantly and for full transparency here is the cost breakdown so far which may be subject to change. Thank you for all the love and support.

As you know, the cost of a funeral can be very stressful on families, especially around the holidays. So, I am trying to raise just enough money so my father can have a respectable funeral in his honor. Any help is greatly appreciated, even if it is a prayer. Thank you, and God bless.
