I would like to Raise funds to go towards his funeral costs and his family to help them with this very sad time as he was an only child.

Auckland

On Thursday 1st April, my best friend Kalam had left work and came to my house to drop some stuff off and wait for the Easter traffic to die down, we had made plans to go fishing the next day, so he got into his car to go home and have a shower and go to sleep. the following day I got a Phone call from his mum and the worst news i could have imagined, he was in a car accident involving 3 cars, he was the only person who was injured and resulted in his passing.

I was his Best friend and "brother", I have been helping his parents plan out his funeral and doing anything I can for them. I Spent almost every single weekend and a few nights a week with Kalam over the last 20 years.

Use of funds

With funds that are received they will go towards his funeral and any surplus funds would then be given to his parents.

I am a distant relative of Kalam. His great great grandfather, Arthur (who I met when I was a child) and my grandfather Job (who I never met) were brothers. I am so sorry I never met Kalam either. I grieve with your family.
