Passing of Stanley Bond 🤍

On the 04-10-2021 I got the call that I had lost my father. This hasn't been easy for my family and I. At 22 years old I never thought I would lose my father.

Being the closest to him we had decided that I would be the best person to be the power of attorney. I let him know that I was going to do everything that he would have wanted, which I feel like I have done so far. Fortunately we had discussed what he would like to happen when it came to it. I hadn't actually realised how much harder it was going to be. I am wanting to raise money to cover his funeral costs and other costs that I have paid for in regards to making this the best process for him. Anything is appreciated, more than words can describe. I am forever grateful for the help I can get at the moment.

The past 2 years he had been battling throat and lung cancer. His throat cancer disappeared after the first year and his lung cancer went from the size of a tennis ball to the size of a finger nail within 6 months. He was on his last legs within the first year and a bit. The last month he was looking and feeling so much better, the best he had been in 2 years. On the 4th of October we got the phone call that he had passed. The funeral home we dealt with has been nothing but amazing. There is more information I would love to share but not sure if it is appropriate, if you want to view it, it is under the 'dad' highlight on my Instagram page- @cassidy_bond.
