Paul Urey's family were told they'd need to pay £10,000 in repatriation costs
The daughter a Lancashire aid worker who was reported to have died while being detained by Russian-backed separatists in Ukraine has said the repatriation of her father’s body will give her family closure.
Ms Coman, a full-time parent to her two-year-old daughter in Manchester, found out about her father’s death after seeing it on the news. Her stepfather, Christopher Chadderton, had tried to get to Ms Coman and her sister to tell them before they heard elsewhere, but was too late. “Rather than saying, ‘Don’t worry about the money, we’ll get your dad back,’ it was a case of, ‘To bring your dad back is going to cost this much.’ I don’t understand how they could lead on two young girls in a situation and they were grieving and confused, a lot of anger.
“It’s very overwhelming because a lot of strangers across the world have taken the time to write these messages and send money over to help us, and they don’t even know us,” she said. “Without the GoFundMe and all these strangers giving us the money to help us bring dad home … I don’t think we would have possibly been able to do it. We’ve never seen that kind of money in our lives.”
