Marine Corps Veteran funeral cost aid
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Quentis and I’m writing this to raise funds for my father’s funeral service after his move to the afterlife. He recently passed the weekend of July 30th from stage 4 esophageal cancer, and was a veteran serving 20+ years in the United States Marine Corps. My father was an overall good person, treated everyone with respect, loved his family and his career.
He raised me to be responsible, respectful, and determined to achieve all my goals. My father was also the reason I ever got into football. Those that know me know how important football is in the Clark family. My upbringing was a no excuse, get everything done attitude. I never understood it growing up, but the way he raised me shaped me into the person I am today. I just wish he was still around to see just how far I’ve come.
This fundraiser specifically will go to cover funeral services and costs surrounding the service as the VA (Veteran Affairs) only compensates for burial services, gravestone, and the bury site. Any remaining funds will go directly to my mother, D’Arcy (“Dee Dee”), to help assist with any other obligations surrounding my dad’s passing. We humbly and respectfully ask for any assistance that you can share to help our family during this trying time.
Thank you for taking the time to read this,
God Bless
