Another iconic figure in ASL history has passed away on 15 Aug 2010. He was my second aunt's husband. I called him "Boo Lei". He was best remembered as someone who took things in his stride. He lived a life of ups and downs. He could have led a comfortable life but he chose to live a colorful life. In his latter years, he was plagued with illness during his latter years. The illness that caused him his life was the kidney disease that he contracted several years back, which took a toll on his health and left visible marks on his hands arising from the dialysis treatment. According to his eldest son, the medicine that he took to thin the blood was probably what caused his life.
Unlike the other elders, he truly lived up to the notion "Live to eat". Despite his illness, he did not avoid fried food, cokes. He did not let the fear of health deterioration stop him from eating his favorite food. On the contrary, he was enjoying his every meal. He taught all of us a lesson. We do not let fear of failure, rejection or death to stop us from our dreams! Life is short. Enjoy every moments!
He was survived by three sons and two grand sons.
Good Bye boh leh!
