Man with terminal cancer holds yard sales for funeral costs
JOHNSTOWN, Pa. (WJAC) -- Driving through town, you often come across yard sales. Everyone has a different reason for cleaning out the house or just trying to make some extra cash. But for one Cambria County man, there's a bigger reason he's selling his belongings.
One man is selling his belongings to pay for a funeral ... his.
For several weeks, Willie Davis has been setting up his blue canopy and selling his possessions in a yard sale in Brownstown.
Last month, David Dunkleberger was one of his customers. "At the end, when we bought a few things, he said to me, 'If you know of anybody else interested, I'm trying to sell all my stuff to pay for a funeral.' And when I said, 'Whose funeral?' He said, 'Mine,'" Dunkleberger said.
"His parents have a burial spot in Culpeper, Virginia, and there's a spot for him obviously, and with that's going to come some financial obstacles," Dunkleberger said. That's his final wish, a wish that could cost up to $15,000.
