HE

March 3, 2010

HE …

recounted stories of his life during the Japanese occupation to my bro and i

made sure i knew my multiplication tables before term started for primary 1

witnessed my 1st day at school

was there for my very 1st sports day shot put competition

was the one who ferried me to ice skating practice and school

showed me how to ride my 1st non kiddy bicycle.

was the one who sat by my bedside with an icy cold towel, toweling me down when i was burning a high fever

was the one who dressed my wounds when i fell down

there are many more to be listed but basically HE was the one who had a part in my growing up and now HE is not around anymore. HE is my grandfather who passed away peacefully on the 21st Feb 2010 at 3ish in the afternoon. Sadly to say i could not make it home to see him for the last time. Sadly to say i never got to tell him personally “Thank you” for everything that he had done for me. At least his battle with cancer ends here.

Goodbye and rest in peace grandpa.
