Gabriel Holt funeral fund

Update -

“Its amazing” The families words at what has been achieved in such a short time. They are blown away by the love and respect shown for Gabriel.

I know that this is going to help no end to take the pressure off at this difficult time

The initial goal of £1000 has been well passed. With that said I’ve upped it, at this rate we can cover the cost of the funeral and hopefully there will be some left over to help the family with other costs. Thank you thank you thank you, to everyone that has donated. Please share it and help to get the word out.

I’ve known the Holt family for over 11 years, me, Chris and Michelle became fast friends and I’ve seen the kids grow up and mature.

Watched Gabriel go from an awkward little boy to a fit, healthy and strong man pursuing his dreams of playing rugby for top teams. Most notably was his recent joining of the Welsh National Uni team!

To hear of his passing in such a sudden way, is heart wrenching. Words can’t describe the heartache we all feel, the pain and suffering that the family are going through.

I know Chris will have helped a lot of people in the community at some point, be that fixing a washing machine, picking up your broken down car to fix or running you somewhere for an errand. Rarely taking payment or asking for a small amount, well below what it would have cost them elsewhere, all so that others didn’t struggle.

Well now’s our time so that the family doesn’t struggle. You don’t plan to have to fund your own child’s funeral. Dig deep people, find that bit of spare cash, put in what you can afford and help to make this difficult time that little bit easier.
