Help us cover the costs of saying farewell to Nigel.

Napier, Hawke's Bay

On Friday night we lost our beloved Nigel, my Dad. Nigel was one of many who lost a home due to the housing crisis and as a result of underlying health conditions and stress, died of brain injury sustained from a cardiac arrest.

Dad has been cremated and we are celebrating his life this coming Saturday in a low key fashion - just as Dad would have wanted. Even though this is the most affordable option, send offs are expensive and as I am unable to pay for this myself, Jayne and Dale have generously covered the costs at a very difficult time for them financially. Jayne and Dale have always been a life raft for our family and I would love for them to not have added financial stress at this time of grief.

Any contribution to help them cover the costs of this would be so appreciated, no matter how small. ♥️
