Rest in Peace... Ah Gong

I was at home at 10 plus at night waiting for a phone call for terry, because we intended to go clubbing. before i received this call, my auntie called up and told my dad that ah gong is not in good condition. rushed down to his place and before we could reach there, he has already passed away.......

11.11.2006 11pm .... It was more or less an expected thing, but we were caught by a bit of shock, becuase these few days he could still walk around. I think he had gone through a wonderful life journey many dun have the chance to, cos he walked this road for 92 years...

Everyone was sad at ah gong's place when i reached there, but after a while, we got settled down and started to plan for the upcoming few days... i think it's going to be a busy week for all of us.
This photo was taken about 5 years ago, ah gong just went to the studio and got his own photo taken and he told us that it's to be kept for ..... today. you can see the time on the clock too, my aunt stopped the clock when ah gong's pulse stopped..

i really thing the date and time was really very zhun... 11/11 11pm ... and when we were thinking back, we realised that my ah ma passed away on 1.1.1985 1am... hhmmm.. 1/1 1am ..... is that coincidental? ..

I'm back home to take a rest before going down again while ah gong is still lying on his bed peacefully, undertaker will only come down in the morning, details of the wake is not available yet, cos we dunno which block is available, but it'll definitely be at farrer road... till wed..

I still have some unposted items... will put them on hold till the funeral is over

I'm sorry for your family's loss :(
And yeah, the timing is really coincidental.
