My Grandad (affectionately known as G-Dog) passed away suddenly at the end of January. My Mum and Auntie have found themselves having to arrange and fund his funeral, which they are happily doing, but it is proving quite costly. Unfortunately, G-Dog didn’t have property or surplus monies so this can’t be funded from his estate.

We would like to request, that instead of flowers at his funeral, you might consider donating a small amount to help my Mum and Auntie towards the cost of his funeral?

We would be extremely grateful as we really want to give him a ‘half-decent’ funeral and send off!

G-Dog’s service will be 11am on the 28th March at Southend Crematorium and then a celebration of his life at The Anchor Inn after the service.

Thanking you all in advance – Lily
