Relatives of the late Steven Pakkies have to raise funds to burry him.

Parkies died of a cancer on June 22 after he was shortly reunited with his relatives in Site B, Khayelitsha.

He was staying with Gertie De Wet, who died two week before his death.

For Gertie no one knows her family as he was taken by Parkies after her shack was flooded.

They were living in Sweet Home informal settlement of Phillipi under poor conditions as they were both not working and seek.


His cousin Patricia Mbawula is now responsible for his funeral and of Gertie if she does not find her family.
