Burial expenses for my dad Richard Phelps

Donation protected
Our dad Richard Phelps passed away this morning on 9/17/2019  from a severe brain hemorrhage. He was a father to five children. He was a grandfather, son, uncle, brother and friend to so many people. He is a veteran who served his country for four years in the US Army. Today he donated his organs to help his fellow men, saving 3 lives. He was a kindhearted and funny man who was always goofing around, and saying the unexpected to make people laugh.He was a free spirit, who was not bound by the expectations of society.  He never let anyone tell him what to do. He has seen many places, and had many crazy experiences. My dad believed in being buried, that was his request. We are raising money  for expenses to give him the burial he deserves. As a veteran, he gets a plot and service, but the casket and rest of expenses are up to us. This was very unexpected and our family funds are limited. He was disabled, and has been unable to work for several years. All donations will be used solely for his burial. Please help us in any way that you can. We thank you for any amount that can be contributed to his cause.
