Jacobs Gunsallas's Funeral Expenses

Donation protected
This is Jacob Gunsallas and his fiance, Kaitlyn at their prom this year. Jacob lost his life yesterday by drowning. He just graduated and turned 18 less than a month ago.He was so looking for to college and being a dad. He was so excited. 

They were swimming with Kaitlyn's young family members in the river in TN where they live. Jacob was practicing to be a dad and swimming with a young toddler. They went under and the  toddler was saved by Kaitlyn, but she couldn't find Jacob. Kaitlyn is pregnant and due in November, so this is extremely tragic. 

I got the pleasure to know Jacob, his father, James and step mom Michelle, when they came for Alexis Bolingers funeral.  Jacob was Lexi's cousin and they were close. What wonderful people, and what a wonderful young man. James, who is Jacob's dad, has been struggling with cancer and funds have been so tight. They truly have no funds to put Jacob to rest, and Kaitlyn will now have to raise the baby alone. 

I pray that people will be touched and give to this cause. Everyone deserves a proper way to be put to rest, and with new babies there  is such a big expense. I do not want James to have to worry about how to bury him, with having to still be fighting his cancer. And this family could sure use some prayers, especially for peace. Thank you in advance to everyone's heart who is touched by this tragedy.
