    Pay To Bury Me.

    Some young girl in Dagenham is asking people to pay to bury her grandmother. Why has her grandmother 90- odd years old not got insurance. After the war we were all bought up with the Royal London and London Victoria insurance. My old nan paid a penny a week for her insurance. We all know we are going to die, so was bought up to insure ourselves. Do you think its right not do that, and ask strangers to pay for your burial. Where are her family, she must have children as she has grandchildren. Me I wont be helping her out. Paid for my funeral so my kids dont have to worry. Why should I help pay for someone else who couldn't be bothered to take out insurance. Or who's family just want a free ride.
