Story
**IMPORTANT UPDATE**
In the last 12 hours we have learnt that funeral costs are likely to be less than expected due to help that Sarah may be entitled too. This help will not cover the entire cost so all donations to date (£1,460) WILL be offered towards Dave's funeral. For the sake of clarity and to enable others who would still like to help this family in need, a new and separate donation page has been set up for those that would like to donate towards a trust for Sarah and Dave's children. To visit this new page please click below:

Please note that any further donations that are made to this page (http://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/DaveJonesFuneralFund) will be treated as donations towards a trust for Sarah and Dave's children.
ORIGINAL TEXT:
You will know that Dave sadly passed away earlier this week.
There are no words that will help Sarah and the children to cope with their loss, but we are hoping that as friends and family we can take action to help in a practical way, by offering funds towards the cost of Dave's funeral.
We will take the relevant advice but hope that any funds that we manage to raise over and above the cost of the funeral will be able to be offered to Sarah to put into trust for the children or to cover any necessities they may need in the coming weeks, months and years.
Thank you for your support, which we know Sarah will really appreciate.
