Final Goodbye to Gatrude

Fund to help me return my Grandma to Uganda for burial

My name is Marlene Gatrude Twinomugisha, I am 18 years old. 

I am raising money for the funeral costs for my grandma, Gatrude Milly Kataliga, who passed away on the 24th of February 2021. 

Grandma was always bubbly and loving to everyone she met. She was unconditionally loved by her family and friends and she was an absolutely beautiful, charismatic, caring and thoughtful.

Grandma was so full of life! She loved to dance and be around family & friends. She was equally loved by everyone she came into contact with, and I can only hope to become half as great a woman she was! She called all of our friends "her children and grandchildren" and they called her JAJA.

Grandma dedicated over 25 years to the health care sector as a team leader at an assisted living home, where she lovingly cared for her clients, who loved her in return. She worked throughout the pandemic and never thought twice about offering to do an extra shift to help out. Unfortunately, grandma tested positive for COVID on the 20th of January and was admitted to ICU on the 27th of January. She fought long and hard, but God called her to His kingdom at 8:15 pm on the 24th of February. 

My Grandma's wish was to get buried in Uganda her country of birth! Please assist me to make her wish come true!

I know that times are tough for everyone, but any donation would be appreciated to give her the send-off she deserves.

Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
