My Pa's 2nd Anniversary [ 己 日]

Time flies, today corresponds to the 28th day of the 9th lunar calendar month.  Two years have passed, I can still remember this day when I just came back from Taiwan.  I was in time to see my Pa for the very last time, not knowing that it was the last I got to see him.  Didn't expect that he will leave me so soon, only 2 hours after seeing him.  I have to believe that he had waited for me to be back from my 2 weeks holidays.
Today, the family made offerings to him in the family home with assortment of food and joss papers.  Believe it or not, I did receive a 'windfall' courtesy from my Pa on the eve of this anniversary.  Thanks to my dear Papa.

Pa we love you and will miss you always and forever.  Hope you rest in peace.

  2. Hi CQuek, to my mum, this is considered simple yet sumptuous way. My mum in-law's way is not tlike this. It's even more elaborate with lots of varieties until we considered it as 'over'.
