My father passed away last Monday at the age of 91. Although he had been physically handicapped all his life and had spent the last 10 years in a wheelchair, he was mentally very strong until the last week. The evening before he died, he stated very clearly that enough was enough and that he would like to leave, which he did the following morning without drama of any kind.
There were traditional Buddhist funeral rites for three days that culminated with the cremation yesterday, and the spreading of his ashes on the Bay of Siam according to his own wishes early this morning. A great journey has come to an end.
The photo is from the ceremony this morning, my brother to the left, then my father's wife and her family.
