Grandpa's Wake

If you're pandang, pls do not scroll down & look at the pics as theres a pic of the wake itself taken...

Hby's grandpa pass away last monday. The last photo he had taken this year with one of his daughter & grand-daughter.. :



Our plan is to went back on Monday to visit grandpa & come back out on tuesday. We reach hometown around 2plus in the pm. Hby is tired & ask mil to rest for another day instead. Almost all his grandchildren & kids went back to sin. Its kind of sour to see how his close kins cries in silence & how they try to persuade him to leave peacefully. We're glad that we stay around that day as we get to stay by his side till his last breath. I do not know how to describe the feeling. Sad... the only word that i can use i guess.

This is the very very trad
itional style i've ever met... 2nd last day of burning our offerings to grandpa ... huge 3 storey bungalow with silver & gold mountain besides it.. maid, one car with ahmad, one of his fav bicycle, boxes of $$, accessories, clothes & lots more...




See those strips... its the silver bars that i've done. They use to put in box call it "Ti Ka Bang" in hokkien..... :)


And the burnings are real high....


Almost done...


Thereafter, the gamblers start to look for the 4 numbers fate...
