Hi friends. As you may know, my father passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, February 19th, from septic shock due to the flu.

He didn't have life insurance and we are in a bit of a "time is of the essence" situation with coordinating pickup/cremation and costs to do so.

Many of you have reached out asking how to help, and this is really the only obstacle we're facing at the moment. The amount of stress that this would relieve would be indescribable.

As the one who normally is the helper in situations please know how difficult it is being the one asking for help. Any funds that go over the cremation expenses will go directly to a celebration of life luncheon, a road trip to spread his ashes at one of his favorite battlefields and finally if there is anything left after that, we would make a donation to Grace Pointe Community Church of the Nazarene in his honor.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
