Global's funeral service is being held on Saturday 9th August at Birkenhead Baptist church in Auckland, NZ.
I am not sure why the delay, not asking, but I do know some of the family don't live in NZ, so maybe that is it.
I am going to order some flowers to send and some people indicated they would like to put in something towards them.
Last time we had a death (Kassandra's) how we organised it at the time was danet ordered and paid for the flowers in advance & showed the screenshots etc and then anyone who wanted to put in towards them sent a private message and was given danet's bank account details where they could make an internet payment so the cost was shared.
I don't know how people feel about that, it involves a degree of trust in me I suppose.
But what I will do is order and pay for some flowers to be delivered on Friday 8th August.
If anyone feels they would like to chip in towards them, they can PM me for bank details or I also have a paypal account if that is easier. I will send a screenshot of the order etc privately. How much people would like to pay towards it is up to them. I think about 4 or 5 of us indicated we might be interested. I am willing to pay all or part of the total sum, whatever, but if by chance I find I get more than the cost of the flowers, it will be forwarded on for a donation. I will message people concerned privately if that happens.
The one I was looking at is white simplicity but there is also a designers choice sympathy sheaf or the one called Love's journey.
This is white simplicity.

I hope to order in the next day or so, if anyone has any preferences, just let me know.
