Shop NYC Top

My friend died last night from pancreatic cancer. He’s estranged from his family (who don’t live in nyc anymore anyway). I’m basically his family. He has no money. I know he wanted to be cremated, but he wouldn’t discuss anything else with me. I’ll be paying for the cremation (I don’t have a ton of money, but I’ll take care of this for him).

I have no idea what to do. All of my family is still alive so I’ve never had to handle things like this before.

No funeral or viewing or anything, just a cremation and death certificates to close out his bank acct and whatever else i need them for.

Anyone have any advice or recommendations? I see cheap places online, but I don’t know if that’s what I should be doing.
