Need help paying for funeral costs

Donation protected
My name is Jeff West & this hansome young man is Austin Jacob Grant West, my grandson....we are from Gastonia, North Carolina. He  was a wonderful 4 year old who loved to smile & make everyone else smile with him. On April 4th, 2015.....his life was taken way too soon when he accidently slipped while chasing a bumblebee with his little shovel & fell into a inground pool and drowned. Austin was taught young how to swim, but the shock of falling into cold water & him also having chronic asthma was too much for him & tragically, Austin drowned. Needless to say this has shocked the entire family & so many others who knew Austin and how wonderful he was, and even people who never got the chance to know him & be a part of his short life. We are in dire need of donations to be able to lay him to rest. No donation is too small & anything would be of great help.  All donations recieved will go directly to all the funeral costs, including marker. I will personally take the funds to Carothers Funeral Home to make sure the funeral costs are paid for.
Thank you all for taking the time to read this donation request & in closing, please watch your children carefully around water....it only takes seconds for someone to drown & I would never want another family to go through the pain my family is going through at this time.
