Saying goodbye through people


Reading the Eulogies for Mrs Lee from the papers today,
just beautiful descriptions of how a woman held a family so knitted together.
& that will be once in many whiles that such emotions could emerge from a newspaper for me.
To the man whom she stood by, the mother to the her children & 'Nai Nai' for her grandchildren.

as quoted from Samuel Butler through her grandson,
"I fall asleep in the full and certain hope. That my slumber shall not be broken;
And that though I be all-forgetting,
Yet shall I not be forgotten,
But continues that life in te thoughts
and deeds
Of those I loved."
