Help with Ronald Green's funeral service

Donation protected
I'm Holly Porter, sister to Ronald Green. Two years ago this July 4th my brother was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer that metastasized to his brain.  Let me tell you a little bit about my brother. He is a father to one son and grandfather to three. He is the best brother a girl could ask for and the most fun loving Uncle to many. Before his diagnosis Ronald drove tractor trailer for over 20 years.  He absolutely loved it!  He enjoyed fishing, traveling and spending time with his family and friends.  His all- time favorite football team... Pittsburgh Steelers! 

Ronald was a patient at Hollings Cancer center at MUSC in Charleston SC. His doctors were truly awesome. He started chemo and radiation treatments in 2019 and the results were positive. Although he suffered some side effects from the treatments he never complained.  As with everything, Covid halted his treatments for awhile....unfortunately during the wait period the tumors in his brain grew aggressively.  Early January 2021 he suffered from his first brain seizure with many  more to come. My brother's health has dramatically declined in a two month period. Cancer is awful! it robs life not just from the person suffering from it but also the family's life. Each day I watched my brother struggle to talk or remember how to drink from a straw it took life from me. 

My brother didn't have a life insurance policy prior to his diagnosis. I'm soliciting your help to pay my brother's funeral expenses and organize a family gathering in his honor.
