Help Charles's Family Lay Him to Rest
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Ruth, and I appreciate everyone for taking the time to read my story. My friend Michele and her family are mourning the loss of their uncle, Charles Wiehagen. Charles was diagnosed in May of 2024 with stage four liver cancer that spread to his lungs. The doctor initially gave him one to two months to live. Unfortunately, Charles’s condition rapidly worsened over the course of a few weeks after his diagnosis and he passed away on June 8, 2024.
I am raising funds because Charles didn’t have a life insurance policy and his niece (my friend Michele) and their family do not have the money to pay for funeral expenses. All money donated will go directly to E.C. Nurre Funeral Homes in Amelia, Ohio to cover Charles' cremation and added funeral expenses. Any amount of money you can contribute will be greatly appreciated. If you can not contribute any money at this time, please share this with your friends and family. Thank you!
