I'm asking for help to give my uncle Bear a funeral. Unfortunately he had no life insurance or bank account. He literally lived month to month on a set income and had no savings. Our family is from a small poor town, and we have no way to pay for his services. Even though I work, I don't make near enough to pay for his services. He has no wife, no children of the home and limited family. All together our family is struggling to find the funds to be able to respect our beloved Bear. ANY help is very appreciated! He had a massive heart attack and so this is vey unexpected and we had no way to try to prepare. Alot of my family have a set income which makes it hard to help. The funeral home can't do a payment arrangement it has to be paid up front and we just don't have any money. He was such a great person! He had a heart of gold and would give you the shirt off his back! He was funny, caring,and so sweet! He loved wrestling,trains, fishing, and being outdoors. He loved his family and they loved him dearly. It's been very hard on everyone grieving and trying to figure out how to get everything done. If there is anyway you can help, just know that our family will forever be grateful!!! Contribute
