Via GoFundMe:
Hello everyone, my little brother Darrin passed away yesterday, April 13 at just 18 years old. He was loved dearly by his family, friends, and those he was surrounded by. It’s been a tragic last 24 hours for us, but I want to make sure he gets the rest he deserves. From what I’ve seen, funerals range from $7-10K, so I’m setting the goal at $8,500 to be in the middle of that. Any and all donations of any amount are greatly appreciated. If the goal isn’t hit, I will cover the difference to make sure that he gets the funeral and burial he deserves. Thank you all for your kindness and generosity. My family really appreciates every one of you that knew Darrin or my family.
