So once upon a time my father died. Young. Still working until the day he entered hospice.

We collected donations for a memorial bench at his favorite park and all of his coworkers donated enough that we didn't have to pay for any of it. Every cent was from donations.

The only way we issued a thank you was through the YouCaring message function, to the entire group.

If anyone had expected more than that from a tiny grieving family, uh, screw them, it wasn't going to happen.
