Just had a gathering in Cousin Nicholas's place during National Day with Uncle Larry and the whole Lee family. Could vividly remember how loving was he with Auntie Lucy when he was faithfully waiting for Auntie Lucy to go shopping with us. Sweet. Hope that my husband will be the same when we are old...(envy..)
It was 13th August when Godma called my house at 6+ in the morning. Uncle Larry has passed away. It came as a shock as 12th August, Sunday, my mum was just talking about leaving a piece of Jeannette's bday cake for him and the next thing we know, he has gone to another world. We did not want to ask too much about his death for fear of upsetting Pam and Jean further and so we went down to the wake the same day after work to find out more and help out.
Uncle Larry died of Hypertensive Heart Disease. He couldnt be revived at the hospital after suspected internal bleeding as he was vomiting blood. He left us that morning.
I remember Uncle Larry as a jovial man who drinks and blushed. One who jokes and always seems happy. This came too sudden. We were worried for Auntie Lucy who is very close to Uncle Larry. Maybe the blow hasnt sink in. I think Friday will be a tough morning when Uncle Larry is cremated. God Bless his family to be strong.
To Uncle Larry, may you rest in peace and we'll be strong and help to look after Auntie Lucy.
