Rahim Ishak, the younger brother of Yusof Ishak, was our neighbor in Jalan Pauh, Taiping. He told me,"Swee, we will welcome you home if you dont like the new life." The next time we met, he was my guest of honor at St.Patrick's Katong Prize giving day. He was then the Minister of State for Education. The second time I cried was when I delivered an eulogy at my Dad's funeral service. I had chosen for the congregation to sing along with me and my family Bette Midler's "Wing beneath my wings." That was my dad, unobtrusive, humble, quiet, always in the background....always behind..but nevertheless the wind beneath my wings. Just a moment ago I stifled a sob reading your post. It was definitely the combined strength of loved family that was the wind beneath your dad's wing. Must meet your Abang Med!!!!Looking forward to next Tuesday.zorrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07541853781206395661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38530403.post-40941944109521050382007-04-11T15:49:00.000+08:002007-04-11T15:49:00.000+08:00Sis EnaFine if you are reluctant to do a Dina Zama...Sis Ena<BR/>Fine if you are reluctant to do a Dina Zaman and include sex in TWB.
