Description
Case No. 1765: A single elderly man, Wong Fuan Kuang, passed away due to heart disease. His elderly brother, unable to afford the funeral expenses, earnestly requests kind-hearted individuals to donate and assist with the funeral arrangements.
At the age of 65, Wong Fuan Kuang, who suffered from various illnesses, relied on long-term medication and never married. He lived with his older brother, Wong Pang Juan, who is 76 years old. His brother lacks the means to cover the funeral expenses and earnestly implores kind-hearted people nationwide to support the donation, allowing his brother to complete his final journey in life and find peace.
The deceased Wong Fuan Kuang and his brother Wong Pang Juan lead a frugal life every day, facing significant financial hardship. Wong Pang Juan, divorced for many years, sustains his living expenses through meagre savings and the help of relatives and friends.
While Wong Fuan Kuang occasionally took on odd jobs to supplement their income, it was insufficient to cover their monthly living expenses. Despite the difficult life the two brothers led, their bond was deep and without complaint or regret.
Last week, Wong Fuan Kuang suffered a severe injury to his left foot, rendering him unable to walk. Wong Pang Juan admitted his brother to the hospital for treatment, where doctors revealed the severity of Wong Fuan Kuang’s condition. Due to breathing difficulties, doctors suspected a heart attack. After a week of hospitalization, Wong Fuan Kuang sadly passed away.
According to the death report, Mr. Wong Fuan Kuang passed away at 4:17 PM on November 3rd due to acute coronary syndrome.
With the younger brother passing away, the elder brother sheds tears. He was deeply affected by their decades-long strong bond, making it hard for him to let go and wanting to send his brother off on his final journey. Mr. Wang Fuan Kuang has no children to arrange his funeral, leaving his grief-stricken and helpless brother, Wong Pang Juan, to seek help from Da Ai for assistance.
We are handling the whole funeral process for Mr. Wong Fuan Kuang, which includes body transfer, cremation, prayer ceremony, and ashes placement. We sincerely call upon everyone to donate to the funeral so he can rest in peace soon.
If anyone is interested in donating for the whole funeral, kindly contact any social workers at Da Ai for more information. Thank you.
Mr. Wong Fuan Kuang’s prayer ceremony will be held at Kwong Tong Funeral Parlour (Hall XX) in Kuala Lumpur on Monday, November 6, 2023, followed by cremation on Tuesday, November 7, 2023. The ashes will be placed at Gui Yuan Funeral Crematorium.
