South Africa announces week-long mourning for Desmond Tutu. Church bells will toll daily for 10 minutes at noon, as funeral is set for January 1st

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 74%. (I'm a bot)


> South Africa has started a week of mourning to honour anti-apartheid icon and Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, who died in a Cape Town nursing home on Sunday at age 90.

> "We ask all who hear the bells to pause their busy schedules for a moment in tribute to Archbishop Tutu," said the current Archbishop of Cape Town, Thabo Makgoba.

> Cape Town City Hall is lit up in purple in memory of Anglican Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

> Several events in South Africa are being planned throughout the week to honour Tutu's life.

> South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said flags would be flown at half-staff nationwide and at South African diplomatic missions abroad until the night before Tutu's funeral service.

> Following the end of apartheid in 1994, when South Africa became a democracy, Tutu chaired the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that documented atrocities and sought to promote national reconciliation.

After 3 weeks without a day off and handling a funeral, I was slammed with 2 violation toll bills in collections.

The irritating thing is I paid one of the violation bills 2 weeks ago, but never got a letter saying it was too late or that it didn't go through. I've had no time to pay these tolls and have been getting them in the mail since last may. On top of that my mail gets delivered 15 miles away from where I live so between work and the funeral, by the time I had the time to pick it up, a lot of these tolls were already in violations. I broke down the other day because I barely make enough money to cover my rent and the one person who helped support me just passed, and the first thing I find is this.

I read I can negotiate with the debt collector to lower the cost and "pay to delete" but I'm not sure the best way to approach it. I don't know if I should call or write a letter but I'm terrible on the phone and I have no idea what to say and afraid of making things worse somehow.

How many bell tolls are traditional during an EMA funeral?

Hey guys, my service lost a long time employee to cancer today, and given his 30+ years of service to our region, were trying to pull out all the stops for his funeral. It's a tradition within military, police, and fire for the funeral bell to ring at the ceremony, and so far we have been unable to figure out how many tolls it should ring. Is there a traditional number for EMS? Thanks guys
