My dad peacefully passed away at 11:30pm 03/01/2024. He had been suffering severe COPD/Emphysema with multiple pneumonia infections back to back over the last two years & recently diagnosed with CHF. He has been hospitalized twice since December and yesterday he told us he could no longer fight and said he could no longer go on in his condition, fighting for every breath he took
My dad requested he be cremated. There will be a burial, small visitation and a celebration of life this summer. His ashes will be buried in the plot next to my sister, who we lost in 2020.
If at all possible, I would like to relieve the financial burden from my mother who has been through so much over the last few years.
