Funeral parlor encourage Zimbabweans in SA to join funeral policy

A Funeral assurance company operating both in Zimbabwe and South Africa has encouraged Zimbabweans living in South Africa to join the funeral police lamenting that some Zimbabweans in that country end up burying their relatives there because they fail to raise money to take the deceased back to Zimbabwe.

Doves Funeral assurance company has introduced Zororo / Phumulani funeral plan to cater for such people.

"Losing your beloved one in a foreign land is always difficult moment.I have seen situations where by Zimbabweans are buried here and the family cannot afford to raise R30 000 for the body to go home.Sometimes parents in Zimbabwe are selling cows to raise money for repatriation," said the funeral assurance company.

"This is bad because for a premium of R69 per month,member ,spouse and 6 children are covered. For your parents in Zimbabwe for a premium of R35 per month they will get a descent funeral and burial.Its sad that you live high life here but you are not covering people who raised you.It will be embarrassing for you not to contribute for your parents funeral or even failing to go and attend.
