A few years back, a distant relative of mine got involved in a terrible car crash that took his life away. He was only 32, just started building a successful career with a plantation company .. and single. When the news came to our attention, my father and my uncles went ahead to claim his body at the morgue. It was definitely a heart breaking moment seeing a young life been taken away in a blink of an eye. And to make matters worse, this man came from a poor family. His father couldn’t even afford a mahogany casket, let alone the funeral bills.
We all know this man have money in his bank, as he was earning a high paid job in his company, but the bad news is, nobody knows his ATM Pin number.. so we couldn’t get his money out to pay for his funeral. Taking this matters to the bank would take a few days to solve, definitely. So what did we end up with? Everyone donated for his funeral bills to help ease his father’s burden.
Oh.. I wish we have a Funeral Insurance for him at that time….

awww this is tough…:*(
