Aim

To raise sufficient funds to cover funeral costs for my nephew who was sadly murdered on June 2nd in Margate. Kent.


Sadly on June 2nd 2018, my nephew was murdered in Margate, Kent.  Unfortunately as a young man he did not have life insurance, and the family are struggling to deal with not only his sudden death but also the costs involved in a funeral.
Kevin was just 38 yr old and leaves behind a 10yr old son, 2 sisters and a brother. As well as mum, all of whom are devastated at this loss.
The Police have the man responsible for this awful crime and he will be in court in November charged with murder.
His body has still not been released by the coroner, so we at this time cant arrange the funeral, but when we can the family will need upfront costs as well as full cost to pay for his send off..  As his Aunt, i have agreed to help my sister and see if we can raise enough to make this day as easy as possible for the family.
Any help anyone can give us will be very much appreciated.
Thank you all.

Quote from his sisters  facebook page states "It is with great sadness that we have to announce that on 2nd June 2018 our brother Kevin was murdered. We are all understandably heartbroken and struggling with the loss of Kevin.  Funeral details will be released nearer the time although this may be a while due to the on going criminal investigation."

Kevin's body has now been released and the funeral will take place on thursday 19th July at 12.45pm. Eastbourne Crematorium..
