paalam uncle...

Hinatid namin si uncle Cardo sa kanyang huling hantungan. Nagkaroon ng service at one`clock ng hapon bago ang libing. It was good to meet some of our relatives who came, but sad to say, madami ding hindi nakarating. Of course kayo na nasa malalayo ay expected na hindi talaga makapunta. I mean, maraming andito lang sa manila na hindi rin nakarating.

The cemetery is just nearby and we just walked our way there. It was so amazing to know the fact that so many people loved my uncle. Its not surprising sa isang kalahi ni papa. Ang daming sumama sa libing, I guess the whole neighborhood na yata... Ang daming umiiyak doon sa pagpanaw niya, hindi ko nga mga kilala ang mga yun. Perhaps people that he touched when he was still alive.

Once more, i felt a sense of pride because of my heritage... Sana maipasa natin sa mga anak natin ang mga qualities ng mga matatanda natin. They were meek, quiet, good people.... na kahit na they love to be in the backgrounds only yet they shine everywere they go...

bye uncle. we will always remember you. a part of you, will always be in our being.

i slept soundly while reflecting the events of this day....see you in my dreams uncle...

( i will post some pictures or maybe remie will maybe next week)

ate gie :)
