Hi, I am Ellan. I am trying to help my younger brother raise the necessary funds to cremate his father, Robert DeRuchie, who passed away on September 30th, 2025. His father, who was also my stepfather, was born on September 2nd, 1955. He suddenly fell ill two and a half weeks ago and ended up on life support, where he suffered a steady decline.

My brother missed a lot of work so that he could remain at his father's bedside so that he wasn't alone. Eventually, Robert DeRuchie took a turn for the worse, and he quietly passed away. Due to my brother being a dedicated son to his father during his final days and making the difficult choice to miss work, he is now in a difficult financial position to pay for the final expenses necessary at the end of one's life. I am asking you to please donate what you can to make this difficult situation a bit easier and to help us with the cremation expenses for Robert DeRuchie.
