Saying goodbye to Gugu - help with funeral expenses
After the sudden passing of Gugu, the family is asking for help with the funeral home and burial costs.
Updates from Busisiwe
We're at 89% thanks to 28 of you. I met with the funeral home and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.
Quick update: $465 raised so far (40%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 30% funded and the plan for cemetery plot and burial fees is now scheduled.
