20 Years without a Headstone

Our Matriarch with no headstone as 20 years approaches.

Rotorua, Bay Of Plenty

Kia Ora Whanau and Friends💗💗💗

I have put this give a little page together in the hopes of being able to raise funds for my mum/Kui's headstone and unveiling who suffered an emotional battle with lung cancer.

💜Hineiturama Penny of Heaven Clayton💜 passed away on January the 12th 2004 surrounded by family and friends with nothing but unconditional love.

The loss of our matriarch struck our family with overwhelming grief and as 20 years approaches, she still does not have a headstone.

Her gravesite shows nothing to remember her by, only a concrete base with flowers from loved ones who visit her, I often go to clean her grave up and renew the flowers she has there and just talk to her like I always would as if she is still here.

A year ago I've had to remove her original cross that was provided by the funeral home. It had withered away to nothing and even her name was not visible anymore.

It's difficult to comprehend that our matriarch still does not have a headstone 20 years later.

So, it's time to ask for help, to put our queen mama to rest in a respectful way, with a headstone and proper unveiling that every loved one who passes deserves.

Use of funds

The funds raised will help with the cost of finally being able to have and unveiling for her and also being able to give her a headstone that's long overdue

You have had all this time to get the funds together for this, but you are coming to the public expecting us to pay for what you are responsible for???

Yes you are correct my family has had ample time to sort it out but nothing has been done hence why I'm asking for help, it's not the publics responsibility but asking for help is not wrong, as you can see 20 years on and still my mum/kui has nothing and I'm not expecting the public to pay for this but I need help they can choose to help or not its simple and I appreciate the support from everyone this is what this give a little page is for
