40 days after my father's peaceful death

Time really runs quickly that it seems just yesterday, we mourned for papang's death. Now it's the 40th day since that night of January 7, 2012, when he left us. There have been times that I cry so hard, having missed my father so badly. I am however consoled by the truth that he is no longer feeling the pains he used to experience while still here.This morning at 10, father Elmer presided a Holy Mass at the tomb of papang. The Parish Council were almost all present. Papang used to work with them when he was still stronger. Some of our neighbors were there too. After the mass, we invited them for lunch at home.

We still continue to pray for papang's eternal repose. We have the strong faith that with our prayers and deeds, we share in his salvation, through the mercy and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
