Expenses for Larry Thompson’s Memorial Services
Donation protected
Hello,
If you don’t know me, I’m the granddaughter of Larry. My grandpa passed away this morning at the age of 83 years old after losing his long battle to cancer, pneumonia, and COPD.
My grandpa had four children: my dad Larry Jr, David, Angie and Vickie. He had many grandchildren as well.
Many who know my grandpa, knew what an ass he could be but he loved each one of his children and grandchildren. My grandpa deserves to have the best service we can give him.
If you know my family, we have never been one to ask for help.. we always figure things out on our own. Unfortunately that’s not the case this time.. my grandpa did not have life insurance, and ultimately the cost for his memorial fell on the shoulders of his children. The last thing my family wants to do is ask for help, but it’s definitely needed. My family doesn’t have much and I don’t want to watch them stress and struggle to figure out the costs to give my grandpa a service.
I guess I’m simply asking for support to help my family as I know they won’t reach out.
The support will go towards the costs for my grandpa Larry’s service. Anything is greatly appreciated, even if it’s something small. Thank you!
