Story

Yesterday I got the terrible news that no parent wants to hear.
My son was found dead at his home. He was 26 years old and had a bright future ahead of him.
He was very much loved by his sisters and cousins.
Today I discovered that I don't qualify for any help with his funeral costs. If I did it certainly wouldn't be enough to pay for a decent funeral for him.
My son was taken from me far too soon,.
My heart is broken and I would really appreciate your help.
Thank you.

Joseph will be arriving at the funeral directors today and we can sit with him on Monday and Tuesday. Yesterday I received Joseph's temporary death certificate and a date for his inquest which is in October. I've bought extras for the funeral and I've ordered the flowers etc. I still can't believe that it's real and I'm expecting him to walk through my front door with another story to tell. Thank you so much for your kindness and support

I've just spoken to the funeral director and Joseph is ready to be released into their care. Funeral arrangements can now start to be made for Joseph. I really wish that this wasn't happening. Thank you for your support and kindness xxx.
