Unexpected drowning

Last Tuesday my dad decided to go out on the boat fishing with a couple buddies. When the trolley wouldn't start he got frustrated because his friend wasnt listening to what my dad was saying so he decided to swim out to the boat. My dad had no life jacket on. My father had real bad ephsema and the current was very strong my dad not being a real good swimmer was starting to get really tired and started fighting and struggling to stay above water. When his buddy threw the rope out to him he had a hold on my dad meanwhile my dad's dog wilber had jump in to try and save my dad and while he was doing that his rope on him was getting tangled in with the rope my dad had and somehow cause my dad to lose ahold of the rope. His other buddy had jumped in same time the dog did and when she dove in after him by the time she surfaced she said he was no where to been seen like he vanished that quick. They were about 100 yards out and water was fourteen feet deep. Wildlife officers standing by a long with other boaters tried to get to my dad as well but my dad had gave up and no more struggles leaving them to have to search for him for two hours. After pulling him in reality hit. Due to the timing. I currently have no job and full-time college student I have no money to cover funeral services as of right now I have had no luck with finding life insurance policy as he had one at once but unsure now. I am only trying to get his ashes as fast as possible because each day only gets that much more I'm gonna have to pay. My family is very small and the immediate family has well of course started there anger and blaming part. So I'm in this alone except for few donations I have already received but still need the remaining amount for costs. Please I ask of someone anyone somebody please help me put my dad to rest. Thank you very much in advance and God bless to all
