People will be normally spending their last day of holiday, playing their heart out. But on this first day of year 2008, I'm doing something different. I attended my ex-neighbour's funeral. It's the first time I attended a church funeral. With all the church mass and all at St Vincent De Paul. They moved out when I'm 8 years old. I still got a recap of how those 3 children of his are like. But today when I saw them, I was quite stunned on the changes on them. Their father left them for heaven but I guess it's a good thing too. He will always be up there looking out of his family and relatives. I walked past the coffin and saw his peaceful face. He died because of brain tumor.
Those sorrows in everyone heart can be felt by the silence and weeping. It's heartbreaking to see how well his wife compose herself. I can really imagine how it feels to lose my own parents. Treasure your parents everyone. Really.
As we pray, he left for a better life. He will always be remembered in my heart. I'll miss you, Uncle Thomas.
