Mother's Day Shall Be Different This Time

Today is a sad day for me and my family members. Our beloved mother passed away early this morning after months of fighting against her cancer. Ideed, the around-the-corner Mother's Day shall be different. Plus; our youngest bro is getting married in two days time.

My thanks to those who came to pay last respect to her (layat as per Javanese term)/

She was a person with careful words and actions. I started to learn on her soft way of doing things or even the word choice; much to avoid offending people's feeling.

She would not show of her inside feels especially in front her own children. Our neighbor used to be her close friend with whom she would share things.

Raising seven children on her own was not an easy task. She was in charge of all things and it means literally all things.

My deepest tribute to late mother (-in law) Pn Hjh Mariati Sirat.

Your menantu.
