A Beautiful Soul Gone This Day

Yes, a beautiful soul has gone to where it belongs (This morning, I woke up to be told ‘Dad passed away peacefully’ at about 2.00am February 6, 2014. He was battling with a throat cancer).
I know only one thing for sure about my Dad – a beautiful soul. He may not be literate, but he was kind and gentle. His gentleness and simplicity spoke for him even after he lost his voice due to throat cancer.  Patience was his strength. He raised up his nine children with tender love and care - I never ever saw him raising his hand or even shout at in anger to any of his children. He treated everyone with kindness –never spoke ill of others - that was his hallmark. He spoke very little especially in public but his promptness to the call of duty spoke for him.

Now that he has left for his eternal reward, may God have mercy on him and grant him everlasting joy and peace.
