Sad news from Africa

Yesterday 4th March I received an email from the parish priest in Kwazulu Natal where many of the people we help attend his church services.

The email confirmed that Brendon, the young man in his third year at college for his Information technology Course had been found dead in the bathroom where he was staying

This was unbelievably devastating news as he appeared well and was doing very well at college and he was looking forward to his future and a chance to support his mother who since the death of her husband about nine months ago and the death of Brendon's brother three months ago was was confined to a hospital for the mentallyunstable.

Now with Brendon losing his life I wonder if she will ever recover emotionally having lost her whole family. Such sadness!

The priest asked if I was able to assisit with the funeral costs so I have just sent out the money including some money for an aged grandmother was who was found in the search for any living relative to whom Brendon's body could be released for burial.
