Within the past three months, three people whom I knew quite a bit passed away. Two of them were my neighbours and the other was a friend’s sister. Life is so short.
Three of these people died under different circumstances. One neighbour, Dr. Hema, while trying to overtake an army truck in Kota Bharu, couldn’t maneuver her car in time to avoid a head-on collision with a four-wheel drive. The other, Lawrence, an avid diver, drowned in the waters of Perak after his oxygen tank malfunctioned. And lastly, Julz’s sister, Ernie, succumbed to brain cancer. Sad thing was she died in late December in Kedah and I only found out today through another mutual school friend.
All of you will be truly missed. I can imagine what your families must be going through. I feel their pain of losing a loved one. May God bless your souls.
