Help with Jorge Hernandez resting expenses

Donation protected
On January 1, 2019 our life was changed when our friend, family member, brother, teammate, special tactics airman Jorge Hernandez passed away. Staff Sgt. Jorge A. Hernandez, 26, of La Quinta, California, a combat controller with the 23rd Special Tactics Squadron, 720th Special Tactics Group. I am Jorges brother Edwing Perez and I have set up this GoFundMe to assist in costs incurred with final resting expenses as I have been put in charge of such items. 

Jorge was loved by many, influenced everyone that crossed his path and had one of the most beautiful souls anyone has ever come in contact with. Maj. Steven Cooper, commander of the 23rd STS  said it best “Jorge was a gregarious individual. Always laughing, smiling and trying to cheer people up around the squadron. He was the guy who everyone knew because of his spirit and liveliness. This is a tragic loss to the special tactics community and our thoughts are with his family, friends and teammates at this time.”
 
During this difficult time, the family is requesting assistance with expenses through this GoFundMe account to pay for the additional burial and memorial expenses not covered by the Air Force in addition to Jorge's outstanding financial obligations. Once the funds are withdrawn by me, any additional monies left over after all expenses and financial obligations have been accounted for will be donated, in Jorges name, to a youth wrestling related organization.

Thank you in advance for your support,

Edwing Perez
