A family with financial difficulties was able to send off their loved one after local funeral provider Funeral Guru handled the service for free.
Following the funeral, the bereaved daughter gave the team red packets containing “carefully saved old notes” to express her thanks.
Funeral Guru shared in a Facebook post last Saturday (April 11) that the daughter had presented them with the red packets despite “difficult circumstances” — her mother is currently undergoing chemotherapy for cancer.
The funeral service provider explained that they usually donate such contributions to charity on behalf of the deceased and keep a record of the amount in the process.
“Our hearts sank when we opened the red packets,” they wrote, noting that the cash was savings, which had been “set aside over time”.
Photographs shared alongside their post showed an old dollar note and Brunei currency in one of the red packets.
