On behalf of late Mr. Manoj Shrestha’s Family, who passed away on April 23, 2011, Nepalese Association of Houston (NAH) would like to thank you very much for your overwhelming generous donation, help and support. Your contributions made it possible for us to send his deceased body back to his parents in Nepal.
Due to your kind donation “Help Manoj Shrestha Fund” raised enough fund to send late Manoj Shrestha’s body back to Nepal as per the wish of his Family.
The fund collected as of today: Mrs. Cecilia Martinez: $300.00 NAH : $9,577.44 (Full List of Donors) Anita Shrestha: $5,153.66 Utsab: $1,500.00 Tristar Convenience Store: $5000.00 Total: $21,477.53
The remaining balance of the fund will also be disbursed to his parents as soon as possible, unless they wish differently. This has only become possible because of your thoughtful contributions.
Mr. Manoj’s body left Houston, Texas, on American Airlines Today, May 03, 2011, and will transfer to Thai Airlines from Los Angeles and is scheduled to arrive in Kathmandu, Nepal, on May 6, 2011, what a coincidence the God has made: that day is Manoj’s 25th Birthday. His family will perform funeral services and final rites, as per our tradition and religion, in Aryaghat, by Shree Pashupatinath temple.

Yesterday, Nepalese Association of Houston (NAH) learned about sudden and untimely death of Manoj Shrestha, a young student at San Jacinto College in Houston. Please view the attached two documents that we have received in this regard.
As a community, NAH offers deep condolences to Late Manoj Shrestha's family and friends. May Lord provide strength and spiritual guidance to all his loved ones.
The grief-stricken sister of Late Manoj Shrestha, who is in the US, and his family members from Nepal have made a humble request to us to have his body sent to Kathmandu for final rites.
As such, NAH is initiating a donation drive to cover all necessary expenses to send his body back home.
You can make the financial contribution using the PayPal (accepts credit card) on this site by clicking on the "Donate" button. This is a noble cause to contribute and no amount is small enough. As time is of essence, please take some moment to help out his family members as they deal with their irreplaceable loss.
While NAH initiates and co-ordinates this responsibility, we will continue fund collection until Sunday, May 15.
We also request you to kindly forward this message to anyone who can possibly make a donation for this cause.
As a community-based, not-for-profit organization registered with the state of Texas, NAH values and appreciates your kindness. |
