I am currently in Argentina with  difficult access transferring funds, so in the event that  the miracle that all of us, like Femi,  hope for, can I ask one of my Canadian based-colleagues to send something in on my behalf?  I will reimburse them on my return on the 30th.

Mis abrazos y besos para mi hermana, Vonda.

Dear Prof Falola,


Please let us know where and how to contribute. You must have provided a bank account in the past, which I don't seem to have. I live in Germany and I like to make a contribution. Ms La Vonda has been wonderful and she still is wonderful!

Regards,
Shola

Fellow Members:

The total expenses for La Vonda's funeral, minus reception, is $6,000. If you can donate do please send it right away so that she can make the payment. I know that this is the Christmas season, to be followed by school fees and tuitions. If you speak with family members, I am sure they will forgo the annual gifts for this year to help her.
I apologize for this intervention but it has become necessary to do so.  If 12 of us can donate $500 each, we will reach the goal. I will send her a check for $500 in the next 24 hours.

Do please treat this appeal as urgent.
