A family from Thame has started a crowd funding page in an attempt to bring a family member home for his mum's funeral

A family from Thame has started a crowd funding page in an attempt to bring a family member home for his mum's funeral.

 

An extract from the page is below:

 

Sadly in the early hours of the 13th December 2017, we lost the head of the family Carole Lowe after a brave battle to lung cancer. Death of a loved one is never easy but even more so when you live across the other side of the world 10,279 miles to be exact! (Brisbane, Australia).

Carole was a fun loving, kind hearted soul who loved her family dearly and cherished the times she spent with them.

Although Dave was fortunate enough to spend two precious weeks with his mum back in February last year it would mean so much to us all to have him home to bid his last farewell to his special mother and to be in England to support his family.

Therefore i am pleading for your help, at this time of the year finances are never easy for anyone so i am trying to raise the funds towards Dave's airfare.

As a family i cannot express how much this would mean to us all and i thank you in advance for any kind donations.

Death Cafe @ Thame Barns Centre
You are warmly invited to attend Death Cafe in Thame. at 7:30pm in room 1 of the Barns Centre, and held on the third Thursday of each month thereafter A Death Cafe is an informal gathering where people can discuss death over tea and cake. We’re aiming to normalise the topic of death, raise acceptance, and help people make the most of their lives by breaking the taboo around mortality. It is not a grief support group or counselling session. These sessions have no agenda, objectives, or themes, allowing for organic, group-directed conversations about anything related to death, from end-of-life planning to fears and feelings, fostering open sharing in a respectful, confidential space. Death Cafe is run on a not-for-profit basis but if you are able to make…
