US Army SPC Ryan Wayne Troester Memorial Fund
Donation protected
On January 30th 2024, our little family of 5 was changed forever when my husband and father of our three children was tragically taken from us in a work incident. He was a devoted husband and father, an army veteran.
We need help finishing paying for his funeral. The insurance did not pay the full balance and over $6,000 is still due, and his headstone is about $9,000. The VA has denied his burial claim and will not issue his military headstone. He was honorably discharged and had a disability claim pending before his death. Our tax refund is frozen because of his death. I was going to use this to pay for the funeral and deposit on the headstone, but now I don't know when or if I will receive it. We are fighting for his VA benefits, but it's going to be a long time before they can get anywhere with it. Anything will help us get this taken care of and get Ryan the headstone he deserves, hopefully before his birthday; July 17th is my hope. I hate asking for help, but just know if the VA does finally pay and this raises enough to cover everything, then the money will go to his children's trust fund.
