Michael Franklin Ensminger Sr.’s funeral expense

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Michael Franklin Ensminger Jr. the son of the late Michael Franklin Ensminger Sr. I am creating a gofundme for my father who unexpectedly passed away on August 5th. On Wednesday August, 2nd my dad had a partial amputation of his right leg after battling an infection for over a month. The infection was due to an injury to his big toe. The surgery had gone well and the only complication that is known was that he went into renal failure Thursday, and they decided to do emergency dialysis and put a port in his chest. He received dialysis Thursday, Friday, and Saturday the week of the 1st. All was going well until he vomited during dialysis on Saturday and aspirated. They then put him on a ventilator and then they did a CT scan. They found he had a significant brain bleed which caused him to lose brain function and pass away. With my father being sick for such a long time and not being able to get life insurance to help pay for all the expenses we are hoping to raise $10,000 to help with the funeral expenses and the transfer of the body from North Carolina where he was residing, to his hometown of Wellsburg West Virginia.
