Our story

Beatrice Okonkwo lived a quiet, generous life. He didn't carry life insurance, and we as a family don't have the means to cover his funeral on our own. Anything you can give — small or large — will go directly toward laying him to rest with the dignity he deserves. Thank you for being part of his story.

Funds go straight to the funeral home

Donations are applied to the invoice automatically — there's no bank account for your family to manage, no waiting for a check. If the fund overshoots, the excess can be refunded to donors or paid to the family at your discretion.
