I never imagined I would have to make a video like this.
My name is Ayse Golcek. On January 10th, I lost my father, Veli Golcek, after his battle with multiple cancers. Just weeks earlier, on October 13th, 2025, I lost my younger sister, Suzan Golcek, at only 22 years old.
In less than three months, I have lost my entire immediate family.
My father’s final wish was to be buried beside his daughter at the Toronto Muslim Cemetery. I am doing everything I can to honor that wish, but I am struggling to cover the cost of his funeral and burial on my own.
This video explains my story and why I am asking for help.
All funds raised will go directly toward:
• My father’s funeral and burial expenses
• Laying him to rest beside my sister
• Decorating and maintaining both of their cemetery plots
If you are able to donate, share, or leave a kind message, it would mean more than I can express.
Thank you for taking the time to listen, and for helping me fulfill my father’s final wish.
With gratitude,
Ayse Golcek
