Let's bring Ricky home.

Donation protected
As some of you may know, my uncle Ricky was diagnosed with congenital heart failure and needed a pacemaker. Unfortunately Saturday he had a heart attack and is no longer with us.

The hospital transferred Ricky's body to a funeral home in AZ, but due to the fact that he had no family living in the state, they were going to give him a pottersfield burial. I was able to contact the funeral home and get everything put on hold temporarily.

We have not told Nana (his mom) yet because her health is failing. My hope is that I can get to Arizona, claim his body, and have his remains cremated and brought home.

When we break the news to Nana, we want to place her son in her arms, along with his pictures and little trinkets. So she can hold him once more..

I'm asking for help to get me from NY to AZ. I need help with:
Cremation
Flight
Rental car
Lodging

Any help is appreciated. Whether it's transferring points toward a flight or rental car, to a $10 donation. It all helps.

Please help me bring Ricky home..
