Help with Austin's funeral arrangements

Hello, my name is Linda. I just lost my only son Austin to an unexpected death.

Austin was only 27 when he left this world. Far to young to die. Although we didn't see a lot of each other in the past few years we have always been close. All those who knew him found him loyal, compassionate, and always encouraging to those who needed him. He always gave all he could even if he really didn't have for himself. Austin was a true friend and protector to anyone who needed him. He loved all animals but especially dogs.

He had a pretty normal childhood, but developed some demons in his teanage years and unfortunately made some bad decisions in his young adult life. I really thought he was going to defeat those demons. But alas he can fight them no more.

I am not one to do this kind of thing, but I had not planned on having to ever make these arrangements. Austin had no life insurance.

I recently closed on a house and am at the moment short on the money needed to take care of Austin's funeral arrangements at Mizner funeral home or with the celebration of his life I plan on having in a couple of weeks where everyone brings me a picture of Austin and shares a memory of him. More info to come. 

I am asking all the people who knew my son to please donate to help me with this painful endeavor.

Thank you so much in advance,

Austin's mother,

Linda.
