Support Aj’s ( Anil Jackson) family

Donation protected
Hi my name is Memi.
I have a big favor to ask of you.
Last year On July 29th 2021, a dear friend of mine sadly passed away. His name was Anil (AJ). He was 41 when he passed away. He left behind his beloved wife, Hiromi, who had been with him since 16 years of age. His oldest daughters Ayla is 15 and youngest daughter Kyara is 13.He was sick for several days and had been taking several medicines and alcohol at the same time. The next day he was unresponsive and never woke up again.
I still can not believe he is gone because it happened so suddenly. Anil and his family were like a second family to mine, so I really want to help them and be there for them.
I am a single mother of two children, and he has always supported me whenever I needed it. He always used to tell me I was his Ohana, his family. I am grateful I was able to be his friend and Ohana.
I feel like I could have told him how much I appreciated him enough. We spent lots of time with his family, and now there is a feeling of emptiness where that joy once was.
We don’t know what to expect next in life. Be thankful for each morning. You need to make loved ones feel appreciated and I realize that now.
After he passed, his daughter told me that she was sad that he had passed, but she felt it was harder for Hiromi because of how much they loved each other for so long.
After this, I thought that I had to help them as much as I can, and now what I'm trying to do to help is put his ashes to rest where he had requested his daughter Ayla before he passed away, so I'm trying to fulfill his wish. It's been eight months since he passed away. Hiromi now has to take care of her two daughters and bills and it is taking a toll on her mental health. She doesn't have the time or the money to send his ashes to the ocean like he had wished.
I really need your support to help Hiromi and her daughters . Any donation would really help them at this difficult time. And It would really be appreciated.
Thank you

皆さんに大切なお願いがあります。 実は去年の7月29日に私の大切な友人、アニールが突然亡くなりました。41歳でした。彼は16歳の時から一緒にいた最愛の妻、ヒロミと、当時、誕生日を迎えたばかりだった娘のアイラ15歳と、キアラ13歳を残して突然亡くなってしまいました。彼は、何日か体調不良の中、風邪薬とアルコールのオーバー摂取で、次の日の朝、目が覚めませんでした。突然過ぎて今でも信じられません。この家族は私にとって大切な大切な家族同然の存在です。シングルマザーの私と私の2人の子供達をいつでも、何かあれば自分の家族の様に必ず助けてくれて、いつも、私達の事をハワイの家族だと言ってくれていました。彼等の存在があったから今までやってこれたと思います。 そして、今、彼が突然いなくなってしまい、まだちゃんと伝えられてなかった感謝の気持ちや、いつも毎年一緒に過ごしていたサンクスギビングだったり、クリスマスだったり、今まで当たり前だった事にも大きな穴が空いてしまった気分です。人生、いつ、何が起こるか分からない。毎日朝が来る事に感謝して、愛する人には、毎日ちゃんと気持ちを伝えないといけない、大切にしてくれる人をちゃんと大切にしないといけない。という事に気づかされました。 彼が亡くなった日に、15歳になったばかりのパパっ子だった娘アイラが、私にこんな事を言っていました。”お父さんがいきなり死んでしまって凄く悲しいけど、きっとお母さんの方がもっとずっと悲しいと思う。だって16歳の時にお父さんに出会ってずっと今まで愛してきた大切な人を突然亡くしたんだから。“すごいな。と思いました。それと同士に、この子達をヒロミと一緒に守らないと、と思いました。 そして、今、私にできる事はきっと、まず彼が、昔、娘アイラに言っていたという、”もしもお父さんが死んだら、海にお骨をまいてほしい”という彼の願いを叶える事。彼が亡くなってから約8ヶ月が経ちます。突然、旦那が亡くなり、2人の娘のシングルマザーになったヒロミにとって精神的にも経済的にもいっぱいいっぱいで、なかなか彼のお骨を海に連れて行ってあげる時間もお金もなく、時間だけが過ぎて行ってしまっています。どうか、皆さん、お願いです。この家族を助けるお手伝いをして頂けないでしょうか。 どうか、どうか、宜しくお願い致します。
