A funeral.....

After struggling for about a month in the hospital, my uncle finally succumbed to the liver cancer & liver damage he was sufferring from. I`m gonna have a busy weekend assisting my aunt with the funeral proceedings etc. Last nite was the 1st service. My cousin who gave the eulogy couldn`t hold back his tears as he was with his Dad when he passed away. My uncle wasn`t the most pleasant person during the last 10 years of his life. He had become bitter, short tempered & a very grumpy person. But he was still loved by his family despite it all. We didn`t see many friends of his attending the funeral last night. Mebbe they`ll come tonite ? I think it`s important to pay our last respects no matter how busy we are. It`s to show the family & the dearly departed that we appreciated him in his life & also to validate his existence. I`m off to the funeral parlour now to assist. Bye.
