WEEK 31: 1 august 1... final goodbye

my mom had been really strong about my dad's passing, but that day it was hard to see her broke down. it was difficult enough for me to say goodbye to my father, how much more it is for my mom who was with him for almost 47 years?!! i couldn't imagine the pain.

we walked my dad from the house to the church. the rain was pouring really had that day...

we celebrated our last mass with dad....

then all family and friends bid our final goodbyes. the pain was just unbearable.. it seemed as though our tears weren't enough to express it. as our teared poured, we held each other tight. we knew we had to say goodbye and we understood that dad is now in a better...but we never really imagined that it could hurt so bad.

....goodbye, dad. we love you.

then we walked my dad from the church to his final resting place.
