Help Honor a U.S. Air Force Veteran

Donation protected
Gerard Lee (center, blue jacket): U.S. Air Force veteran, our father, grandfather, uncle…passed away unexpectedly due to natural causes.

He served his country and was honorably discharged in 1977. At the time of his passing, like many of our veterans, he lived a quiet life but did not have insurance nor savings to cover end-of-life expenses. The responsibility for final arrangements has been given to our family, who is struggling to pool together resources for arrangements and doing what we can to make sure we send him home with dignity.

Funds raised will help cover:
-Funeral or memorial service expenses
-Death certificates and required documentation
-Transportation and related costs
-A repast for family and loved ones

Any amount helps and is deeply appreciated. If you are unable to donate, sharing this page, offering words of encouragement and prayer are also meaningful ways to support our family.

Thank you for helping us honor his life and military service. Our goal is to provide a respectful service that honors his military service and allows loved ones to gather and remember him.

We are asking for support to help lay Gerard to rest with the dignity and respect he deserves.

With gratitude,

The Lee/Raines/Powell/Phillips/Farmer Family
