Dad's 40th day mass and my visit

Dads40th

Time flies fast. Since he has joined my mom in heaven it has been a flurry of activities- fixing his stuff, preparing for the 9th day novena at home, attending a Sortware Industry workshop at Tagaytay, processing papers and setting up my two new businesses and office in Makati, flying to cebu to attend and speak at a conference, attending the wake and cremation of Jee, a batchmate as soon as I reached the airport from Cebu, and finally preparing for dad's 40th day mass and dinner at home.

After making sure some of the details are done at home, I motored to buy some flowers from Dad's 'suki' in BF homes then proceeded to Heritage to visit mom and dad.

Some of dad's friends and relatives who were not able to attend the wake since they knew this much later went to the mass last July 1, first friday.

I guess Dad had a way of letting them know he is gone. His favorite storekeepers in Mercury drug all of sudden had an urge to find his number and call our house to ask how he is. They made sure they trekked to our house although late just to condole.

Fr. Alton from Don Bosco, a close friend of Dad said mass.
