A daughter’s final request for her mother

A daughter’s final request for her mother

A young girl lost her mom and her father didn’t have enough money to buy a tombstone for her grave. Thanks to Vishal Salik from Thekweni Tombstones it is now possible.

I received a heartbreaking email from Thobile, a young girl whose parents were married for over 20 years.


Her mom got ill and after spending three months in hospital she passed away on the 29th of October ... the funeral a few days later.


Arriving at East Coast Radio, Thobile told us how strong her father had been for the family.


She too has tried to be strong taking comfort in the fact that her mom comes to her in her dreams at night and tells her not to be sad.


Thobile's request ... a tombstone for her mom which her family isn't able to afford.


The minute Vishal Salik from Thekweni Tombstones heard about the family's plight, he and his team jumped on board to helped with the donation of a R10000 tombstone.


You'll find Thekweni Tombstones at  16 Peter Rd. Sea Cow Lake, Springfieldpark, Durban,
