Family spokesperson, Luckson Mudinzwa, yesterday told Southern Eye burial preparations were now in full motion after well-wishers had chipped in to help the family.
“We are currently making the necessary burial preparations, and if nothing goes amiss, the burial will surely take place tomorrow (Friday),” he said.
Chipo Mudinzwa (58), her 29-year-old daughter Christine and son Cleopas, died in a mysterious fire on Monday.
Mudinzwa said burial proceedings were expected to begin with a church service at 10am at Exodus Funeral Services in Kelvin North before the burial at 11am at West Park Cemetery.
“We are thankful to the well-wishers including Exodus Funeral Services, helping us with preparations needed to give the deceased persons a decent burial. Words alone cannot express how grateful we are,” he said.
Exodus Funeral Services on Wednesday said it would foot all the bills for the burial of the three victims, including coffins, hearses, transport for mourners, a church service and food, all free of charge.
