My beloved mother passed away on 16th October 2011 at the age of 83. I flew back to Kuala Lumpur and then off to Taiping. My other siblings were already in Taiping and some were on their way. The last time I saw my mother was early last year before I went over to Sydney to be with my partner. I remember that my brother called me on Sunday morning to inform me of the sad news. I felt so devastated and sad and it broke my heart when I later saw the look of my younger brother, for he has always been the good son taking great care of our mother.
The funeral took place on the 5th day after her passing. She was cremated and her urn was placed in a temple next to my father who passed away more than 20 years ago.
I really miss her and sometimes I still cannot believe that she is no longer with us. It seems like everything happened so fast and it has created such a big void in my heart. Nothing can ever replace the love I feel for my Mother. I love you dearly Mother. May your soul rest in peace....
