Falkirk community rally round to pay for funeral of woman with no life insurance – Daily Record
The devastated children of a Falkirk woman who died after contracting coronavirus have set up a fundraiser to give their mum the send off she deserves.
Anne Gray passed away in intensive care on Sunday March 6, at Forth Valley Royal Hospital following a “heroic” battle with the virus , aged just 49.
Unfortunately, she had no life insurance or savings leaving her son and daughter in limbo.
Daughter Stacey Chalmers, 29, has since started a GoFundMe, which has raised almost £2,000 from donations from locals to go towards funeral costs.
Stacey says that it’s the final thing she and her brother, Dylan, can do for their beloeved mum, so they want to give her the perfect send off.
