Dad's Funeral and Burial Expenses

Donation protected
Bob was an interesting character. He had a big heart and an even bigger mouth, but he loved his family, friends and neighbour's. On Saturday, June 15 when he planned to attend Guelph'S annual Brain Tumor Walk Fundraiser, he was unreachable.

Unfortunately, on that day Bob experienced a possible heart attack... attributed to by his chronic health struggles that had left him financially strapped since he was no longer able to maintain employment. 

This shocking discovery was made by two of his children and came as a huge suprise. This time is emotionally, physically and spiritually challenging for any family, but the added financial struggles are often something that those around us can help with. We always offer our support, and this might be something you are able to do. 
If not, but you want to contribute: we would also appreciate anyone interested in bringing a store bought sealed (health inspection "thing") to the celebration of life to let Patty (daughter) know [phone redacted]. 

It is my hope that together we can provide a little donation in memory of Bob or in support and generosity to his family that are struggling with the cost of laying him to rest in the manner that he would have wanted. 

It was Bob's wishes to have a small service, but given the response and request of those around him to show their appreciation and respect, there is a celebration of life you are welcome to attend. 

The celebration of life will take place at 6pm on Friday, July 26 at The Royal Canadian Legion on 57 Watson Pkwy in Guelph., ON. N1L OH8 -1-519-822-1565. 

There is no pressure to donate in order to attend, just a desire to remember. 
If you would rather make a direct donation towards the costs please feel free to reach out for arrangements. 

If you feel compelled and are able to support this cause, we want you to know that the family did their best to fulfill Bob's wishes on as limited as possible funds.

These costs include the funeral,  burial and administrative costs. These expenses are not reflective of the financial demands for his debt and fees. In no way is the family looking to do anything more than cover the cost.
