David Bedel’s End-Of-Life Fund

We are asking for your support on behalf of David Bedel's family. David was a gentle spirit with a kind heart—beloved father, husband, artist, and animal rescuer. David’s 15 years of courage in the face of chemotherapy and chronic pain, during which time he contributed to research of new cancer therapies by volunteering to participate in trials of experimental medications, are a testament to his strength of heart.

David’s prostate cancer had spread to his liver and bones, and his lymphoma had returned. When his chemo treatments recently stopped working, his health rapidly deteriorated. David spent last weekend in the emergency room after falling and breaking his hip. During that visit, doctors discovered a hemorrhaging brain tumor, David entered hospice and passed away Monday, Jan 30, 2023.

Any amount of money you can spare will help us reach our goal of $8,000 to provide the family with some financial relief.

Funds will be used to help his family cover David’s end of life costs, medical transportation costs, cremation services, medical bills, and other costs typical of end-of-life needs and his family's transition and recovery from losing David.
