  • Red is finally being cremated!

      29 March 2024

    Hi again everybody , just wanted to update everyone , we have paid the deposit and this means Red is finally being cremated this Easter weekend, most likely Sunday. As we have already held a service and due to lack of funding I regret to tell anyone who was hoping to see him at the funeral home before his cremation, this will not be possible. Once again I would like to thank those who have donated both time and funds as this would have been so much harder without you all. And I encourage those of you who haven't yet donated for whatever reason please we still have a lot left to pay and Reds Ashes will be held until we do pay most of the outstanding amount. I am more than happy to continue these updates and also add proof of payments to the funeral home to assure those who may think the funds are going else where. I can promise you all the only place any donations will and have gone to is to cover costs of services provided by the Funeral Home.

    Reds time with us here in this life has come to an end. and some may wish they had more time to say things they might of left unsaid , know that Red is everywhere now he can be anywhere anytime and he isn't struggling or in pain while out walking , he has wings now so be free Red., id say Rest Peacefully but everyone who knows you knows this isn't possible and you'll be off on a mission roaming on your way to your next journey . Love you Red xoxoxox

    Also Reds birthday is coming up so stay tuned for updates on what's planned.

  • Updating Reds friends and family

      21 March 2024

    Hi everyone , just wanted to keep you all posted on our dear friend Red .

    Red was going to be cremated last Friday the 15th of March however we were unable to come up with the cash deposit of $3000 to be paid to the funeral home before they will accept any WINZ payment towards the total cost so it is with sadness that i inform you that as a result his cremation has been delayed meaning for the time being he is laying at Funeral Home in Henderson until we can raise the deposit. It has been a bit harder than we thought with no family coming forward, leaving us his friends to work together so that he can be may soon rest peacefully. We will keep you all updated as we have more details.

    THANK YOU everybody from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and generosity, the beautiful words and memories shared and the love ❤️ being shared for Red. Bless you all.

    For those of you who have donated thankyou so much and to everyone for the loving heartfelt messages ♥️
