In Loving Memory of Grandpa
1925 - 22nd June 2006


Thanks for all your prayers and for all who came down to the wake to remember my Grandpa. Thanks Moo, for coming down everyday, Josco, SK and Eve-jie, for coming down on the first night to deliver my birthday card and to offer their support, Sue's cell, Pastor Ian, Alisa and Saion, Shao Wei, Steve and cell, Khen Wai, Ange, Peishan, Lydia, for being there during the funeral and being such a great help moving the furniture at Grandpa's place (=P), Zac and Jared, Jasmin, Judith. Thanks to those who sent their condolences and birthday wishes via SMS. Thanks Ringo for being so understanding and postponing my worship slot to a week later. Thanks to my colleagues, Jojo and Irene, for being so sweet. Thanks to all who prayed with us for Grandpa and all who prayed for us and our family during this tough time. Thank you thank you!

Appreciate it.

The cousins and I sang the song, I Could Sing of Your Love Forever, at the service on Saturday. The first time Grandpa heard it was on his birthday. We also sang it the night he passed away. He teared. We just felt we should sing this song one last time for him at the wake service.

He has been really strong in his last days, after they took away the life support and we're proud of him. The cousins and I were praying for complete healing, and I guess his passing is God's answer to our payers. He has indeed received complete healing and has gone to be with God, where there's no sickness or sorrow.

I love you, Grandpa, and I'll see you in heaven.

Remember before we sang the song "I could sing of Your love forever"? You suddenly could not remember the 3rd line of the song..

Which was "and i will open up my heart" (and let the healer set me free..)

I guess it was already evident at that moment, that he was going to be healed..

the Healer has truly set him free..
