In loving memory of Kok How

Many are celebrating Autumn Festival today. But for me, it's not a day to light the lantern; it's a day whereby I lit the joss stick and pay my last respect to him.

News came to me in the morning. I was speechless and shocked. He passed away at 715am after having difficulty in breathing. He has been very strong in accepting the fact that he is not getting any better. A friend told me that he once said he is not afraid of death, he is just afraid of leaving us as he is going to miss us dearly. I broke into tears. It is really sad to see him leave. Perhaps, it is good for him as it will cease his sufferance. It really grieves me in seeing his sorrowful family.

I hereby pay my last tribute of respect to you and you will forever be remembered and missed by your family and friends.
