I'm really sorry to hear of his passing Look; yes, may he rest in peace. I'm glad he had the reward of seeing his beloved daughter return home with her hard earned gold medallion; he could now let go perhaps :- ) A sad time for his family & friends.

Look, as you have reminded me during our chat yesterday about your above recent blog. I have come now to read it and posted my hereby comments. It is a sad and pitiful event mostly for the girl, after such a joy came that tragedy which has overcome the other. The loss of a dear beloved one by any means, is always a memorable and grief-stricken feeling. Sabina. Thanks again for stopping by and for the touching comments. Take care and stay well.
