Since 1st of Syawal, I attended 2 funerals.
Two grande dames of our big families.
One related by marriage, another by blood.
I was, naturally, closer to the one related to us by blood - my grand aunt. She used to give a verbal history how naughty my father when he was a young boy in the kampung, in Terengganu, among others.
It felt weird to meet great your family with:
Selamat Hari Raya and then, Takziah.
Funerals are reminders.
