Helping my sister with the cost of burying her husband.

My sister was always a quiet one growing, in 1999 she met Paul Ostins and straight away she came out of the shell she was always stuck in.

Paul instantly became a part of our family, wouldn’t think twice about having a look in your fridge or giving you an insult (in a funny way of course). He was a Villa fan so fitted in well with our dad but his first and only love was my sister. He always looked at her like she was the only person in the room, a true love story.

moving on a few years they ended up with 4 children, 3 daughters coming first and finally a son following. Michelle and those kids were Paul’s entire world, the family got added to when his first grandchild came along, seeing Paul cuddling his grandson would make anyone’s heart smile.

but then Paul got sick with Kidney failure and heart failure followed, he carried on being the head of the family but was in and out of hospital every few weeks. That took its toll on the family but most importantly the finances.

Sadly on the 7th August Paul took his last breath, not only does he leave behind his wife, 4 kids and grandson he also leaves behind an unborn grandson he will never get the chance to meet. Now they have the awful task of planning his funeral, Paul didn’t have life insurance nor did they have any savings and funerals are not cheap.

I’ve set this go fund up to help them with buying a headstone or with the cost of the funeral it’s self, so anything is welcome. All I want to do is take that little bit of stress away.

Paul will be forever missed by so many, but helping relieve some stress will go along way.
