Two kids who want their dad back from the funeral home

Auckland

On the 1st of June 2025 Kim (Kimbo) was rushed to hospital due to a stroke. I, (Christiaan) and my sister (cheyenne) at the time was overseas on holiday. On the 3rd of June 2025, Kim sadly passed away. Both of us, and his partner, have been left with all his bills and further funeral expenses. This Give a little page is to assist with all this and to take the stress and strain away from the whole situation.

unfortunately the funeral home are holding Dads ashes hostage until the bill is paid in full and we don't have the funds right now and it could take a while to get it. Until that time it is very difficult for us (his children) and his beautiful wahine Annie to properly grieve.

We are asking here for any donations that would be greatfully accepted and they will be going to pay for his service so we can get dad back home to us and also ease the burden of extra living expenses until we can move to a smaller home.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read and potentially help.
