It was a bright sunny day. I still remember, it is very clear from my memory. I saw him walking in the rice field. He paused for a moment and looked at me. I glanced at him also. That was my last encounter with him.

      And now his gone just like that. It happened so fast. No one expected that to happen that day. He is a very healthy man. That's why others wondered of his sudden death.

      He is well-known by his jolly personality. He often crack funny jokes which makes his audience go crazy at all times. Many people express their condolences and joined the family in mourning. Relatives and friends from far places came to pay respect to his remains for the last time. Seven sleepless nights were spent to be with him before finally leaving this world.

      Reality really hurts. But we should put in mind, that we face a lot of challenges everyday. These are part of life. I believe, these challenges makes us to be a good person, a stronger and better one.

      Its hard to accept that he's gone, no parting words left only happy memories to remember. However, we have to move on. And be reminded by the sermon of the priest during the funeral ceremony, that we should accept that he was gone for his soul have joined our creator - Almighty God.

     Wherever your soul may be, may you find eternal happiness and rest in peace ..... Tatay Tony
