Retrieving My Fathers Remains
Donation protected
With the passing of my father on September 7, 2015, it's been a major downfall and heartache to our entire family. It's been a little under 2 months since his passing, and it's been a tremendous battle between his wife in China and the family back here in America.
After speaking with his Chinese wife for weeks on end, countless hours, and sleepless nights, she has agreed to that if an American family member arrives in Beijing, China that would she would comply. With compliance I would be returning home with my fathers remains as well as his belongings in his home in China.
I ask any friends and family, to help at any small amount if possible offsetting the expenses that are soon to accumulate. I have to currently purchase a plane ticket to China round trip roughly $1,000.
Food and any diet expenses for two weeks, any lodging that I may be doing for stay each night.
The most difficult aspect will be the crematorium, and paying them for his body being held their for almost 2 months (at $44 a day).
After these steps are complete I will also be sending his belongings back home, and also be shipping his remains in an Urn.
Being in the military I have enough days saved up to where I can take the vacation days at any given time.
Anything helps, and I truly appreciate everyone for their help and efforts through this tough time.
