My Grandpa in the news

Hi everybody. This is my grandpa if you guys are interested to know. It was on the 2nd page of Berita Harian on last Monday or Tuesday. Sorry if I haven't been active these days. Too much things happening at once. Before i say anything, i wanna say thanks for all your support these past few days. These days were really trying for me. Anyway, he lived to a ripe old age of 84, and we are all thankful for it. His presence was required in all my family's meetings. That's cos even though he was quiet throughout, he was as in the saying 'diam diam ubi berisi'. Is that right hid? Haha... He was the head of the family. He left behind 16 children of his own, (a lot eh?) and countless of grandchildren. I'm one of them. Can be said I was one of the closest grandchild to him, probably because my house and atuks's house was just a few blocks away. So I used to go there a lot, and he would disturb me by tapping my shoulder, then acting innocent. Or he would always amaze me whenever i went there, coz he always had a sweet, a chocolate, or something in his hand, and he would give me. Even when ive grown to be a big guy, he still did give me... That's my most vivid memory of him. Also, that he's very wise. I'm sad, but i force my tears not to fall, because he would be sad too, and i want him to pass on being happy. I saw him on thursday evening, at that time he was already unconscious, but still alive. He had a stroke, his right side paralysed. But still alive. And that's the last I saw him breathing. Went for NDP rehearsal as per normal on Saturday. We finished packing and got ready to go home by 2am. I didnt feel like going home at 2am, though wanna stay there till morning came, but a friend drove me to Clementi, from there I took cab so it would be cheaper. I reached home almost 3am. Around 6 plus, my mum woke me roughly saying, "Get ready quick! Grandpa just passed away!" Immediately I woke up with my head splitting and got dressed within 2 mins. Took cab directly to SGH and he was lying there very still. Tears fell, but quickly I wiped them away. After that i felt very weak and lethargic, mentally drained, that even during the burial, was sad, but too tired to cry... Sorry for saying all this things now... I go now...

...Raii...
