my uncle passed away on Friday, May 21, 2010 - dad's brother. we got word from my auntie & cousins. he had some problems in the past but recently was well. i’m not very as to cause of death. so, hopefully then i will know something more. funeral is on the same day. it is still so sad and shocking. i wasn’t extremely close to him but the way that it happened is what affects me
i just talked to my cousin to get some details on the arrangements because my dad didn't want to "bother" them. my cousin seemed to appreciate the call. she was very nice. we are not usually in touch so we exchanged cell phone numbers to facilitate further communications. when she answered the phone and i told her that i was sorry about her dad, a huge lump suddenly materialized in my throat and i almost choked on the words.
i last saw my uncle when i was 27 in years. i mostly lived on the other side of south country. the past years in 2009, i have wanted to go visit, but due to circumstances on there side or ours, that didn't happen. and now he's gone and i am sad. i am sad for my dad too. this is the first of my parents' siblings to have died and it makes my parents' mortality glare out at me too.
~ waves ~ of sadness keep coming over me.
Dear cousins… I am so sorry to hear about his loss, dear auntie and cousins May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala gives you and your patience in such difficult time. May Ayah Lang rest in peace! Amin Ya rabbal alamin..!
