Papa's Funeral

For those who doesn't know; papa passed away due to his 3rd heart attack, two weeks after his second. He now lies at Sanctuario de Carmona. The family is coping quite well. We're just thankful he didn't suffer any deformations after his attacks, and now is relieved of all his pains. The family knows papa will not leave us unprepared for the challenges ahead of us.

Papa, you did well. As far as we know, your mission has been accomplished.

I made this sketch the night Papa requested me to make him a cartoon-selfie. I never finished, I thought it could be better. I'll settle with late than never.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone. Friends, Family, and Colleagues who sent their deepest condolences, warm regards, moral & financial support. I do not know how we could have made it without all of you. Papa was our first death in the family and we know not one thing about funerals.

Again, thank you very much. As the oldest son in my family, I'll do my best to take charge from here on.

I am now quite rested and ready to work again. I miss papa for sure; but not as much as the following days, months, years, birthdays, anniversaries, and other events to come.

My 8 minutes of papa starts now.
