Daniel, myself and Lily went to Mandai Crematorium Ash Collection Centre this morning to collect the Ashes of Paul. Paul's family went directly to the Centre and we met them there at about 11.30am. After doing the paper work, we were ushered to Room 4. Daniel said a short prayer and followed by that we each picked a piece of the bone to put into the urn. The Casket Company's representative then proceeded to put the rest into the urn and sealed it up. We then left and went to All Saints Home at Poh Huat Road to put the urn in the niche. The niche is in Blk 2A Rm 6 and the niche no is 77.

The last few days have brought back so much memories about Paul. He's only been my brother-in-law for 3 short years but he will always be in my memory. Paul and myself shared a few similar traits - we are both quick-tempered, we both don't like pets and we are very particular with cleanliness and tidiness. But I would like to have his other traits - that is his fighting spirit and unwavering faith in the Lord till the end of his life. He had chosen to focus on the Lord despite the pain and suffering he went through. His endurance of pain was amazing. I know the Lord must have been so real to him for him to look to God throughout the last few years of his journey on earth. Once again, Abba Father we can't thank you enough.
