Support for Carl Martin's Memorial Expenses

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Maria. As some of you know, my father Carl Martin has passed away. My dad was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer earlier this month. This news devastated all of us, especially considering we just lost our beloved brother and son to him, Cameron Martin.

My dad was scheduled for many doctors' appointments back to back, to see if the cancer had spread to other areas of his body. He was unfortunately not eligible for surgery, due to him being 77 and also with the cancer being so close to his heart. My dad also suffered with diabetes for many years. His prognosis was hoped to have been 5 years with chemotherapy and immunotherapy. We did not expect to lose him so soon. He passed away on August 14th. He wasn’t even able to tell his loved ones yet that he had been diagnosed with Lung Cancer.

Because of his passing, and Cameron’s passing prior in May, this has put immense financial and emotional stress on his remaining children, Maria Martin and Chad Garcia. We are asking for any donations that are able to be made. We were approved for funeral assistance, but unfortunately this only covers the cost of my father's cremation. We still have to pay for the burial, his memorial services, as well as pay for the remaining funeral expenses from his son's death prior to his own. Any help is greatly appreciated. And any prayers and good vibrations as well.
