Relatives get more active at helping during burial arrangements?

Around here in Kenya it is commonplace for relatives to play dump when one gives a distress cry. A few will turn up when one requests for help to offset bills, raise school fees, or even start a business. Funny, when somebody dies they form WhatsApp groups and raise lots of funds. In some cases, very expensive cars are used in a funeral procession. A lot of food is also prepared for guests. I find it very ironical that relatives will quickly rise into occasion when one dies and are seemingly uninterested to help one that is still alive.
