Pr Mapusaga Faraimo, Marsden, QLD— The family of Pr Mapusaga Faraimo is grappling with profound grief after the passing of their cherished granddad. The Faraimo family, a respected and loving part of the Samoan Seventh Day Adventist community, are now focused on ensuring that their beloved patriarch is given the dignified and peaceful final resting place he deserves.
On the day of his burial, the family faced an unexpected and heartbreaking situation. Upon arrival at the burial site, they were informed by the Logan City Council’s maintenance team that the grave location was unstable. The walls surrounding the plot were already collapsing, and the ground was deemed unsafe, though the decision to proceed was made in a moment of necessity, as loved ones from interstate and overseas had gathered for the ceremony.
With heavy hearts, the family proceeded with the burial, only to witness further instability as the graves on either side began to collapse into Pr Mapusaga’s final resting place. This traumatic experience, marked by emotional distress, left the family unable to properly honour their grandfather’s legacy.
Following the distressing event, the family reached out to the Logan City Council to explore the possibility of moving Pr Mapusaga Faraimo to a more secure site. However, they were informed that the costs associated with re-interment would fall entirely on the family. Despite the heartbreaking circumstances, the council maintained that the family could have postponed the burial, though this was nearly impossible given the circumstances.
In light of this, the Faraimo family has launched a fundraising campaign to cover the expenses required to move their grandfather’s remains to a more suitable and respectful burial site. The funds raised will go towards the exhumation fee, the preparation of a new gravesite, and the necessary legal and logistical fees associated with relocating Pr Mapusaga Faraimo.
The family’s hope is to provide their grandfather with a final resting place that reflects the love and respect he earned throughout his life, as a husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and revered community figure.
We extend our deepest sympathies to the Faraimo family during this time of sorrow. Our thoughts and prayers are with them as they seek to honor the memory of their beloved granddad.
Prayer Message
We send our heartfelt prayers for the peaceful rest of Pr Mapusaga Faraimo, and strength to the Faraimo family during this incredibly difficult time.
