Hello — thank you for reading.

My family and I are heartbroken after losing my brother, who passed away recently. He was experiencing homelessness, and we are struggling to cover the costs associated with his final arrangements. We want to honor him with a respectful farewell, but we simply do not have the financial means — especially for cremation and related services.

Cremation costs in Eugene, Oregon, can range from around $1,000 to several thousand dollars depending on the provider and services involved. We are trying to raise enough to cover the basic direct cremation and any necessary permits, paperwork, and respectful care.

My brother deserved dignity and love, and even though life was hard for him, he was still someone’s family — someone who mattered. Any contribution, big or small, will help give him a proper send-off and ease the financial burden on our family during this painful time.

We deeply appreciate your kindness, prayers, and support — it truly means the world.

Thank you. ❤️
