Need help paying my dad's funeral
Donation protected
My name is Hope & I am a 22 year old musician + college graduate. 7 months ago, my father passed away after a short battle with Stage 4 Lung & Brain Cancer. The battle was so short, he passed away with no will. Because of this, I was legally put in charge of handling his estate as next of kin. I was a week away from beginning my final semester at Rowan University, and the complications surrounding being legally given this task were extremely difficult. I spent my last semester of college in a constant battle with multiple things surrounding his estate, while also taking 6 classes.
Since then, I've graduated college and 99% of his estate tasks have been handled, except for one big thing: paying the remainder of the funeral fees. My father passed away with legally zero estate money (it's documented) because his main checking account was under a certain amount of money.
I don't like asking people for things; I've always been a pretty independent person. But right now, I really need the help. My dad was my best friend; the light of my life. I just want to make this final payment and eliminate this stressor of legally being his affidavit next of kin. Any help would be so much appreciated. I want to close this chapter off strong. Thank you so much in advance to anyone who can help me out. I know my dad would truly appreciate it.
