i'm back from...yeah
i haven't got any news because i've been at
mount alvernia hospital and the national
university hospital for the past week since
Sunday.
The following was posted on the blog dedicated to my
Godfather.http://frdavid-ablessedlife.blogspot.com
Last night Fr David went home to be with
Jesus in heaven at 11.45pm,he said he was going home
on the 14 of December,but he was early,as he always is.
I will forever love and cherish my moments spent with
Fr David(my godpa) and i will miss him dearly,but all is well
now because he is in the safest hands there is,God's hands.
Not much needs to be said about Father David.
His actions have shown us all what defines him.
He was humble,reserved,loving and caring.
He has truly done everything for God,his family
and his friends in his wholesome 51 years of
living and 8 years of priest hood.Such a short span of time
i must say,but he did many great things in that time,many
many great things that have left an enormous impact on
countless lives.
Like many have commented,Father David is a
man of few words,but these few words have touched
many lives.I believe them.He was very reserved,
and said meaningful things,he never wanted popularity
but got it from his powerful homilies.Many of his parishioners
have commented on his sermons being very passionate
and enjoyable,even though Fr David was not a priest at my church
i have been blessed to have heard his sermons,be it at Holy Spirit
Church or at school when he came for mass,i agree that his sermons
are mighty powerful.
Although Father David has passed on,I believe that he is in a better place
and is now with Jesus(whom he has taught many about)and is in paradise.
To me,i have lost a dear person,for he was my Godpa,and I'll miss calling him that,
we will all miss him,and he will never be forgotten,nor will his good deeds.
I will miss the times when Fr David will play with his youngest niece and nephew
and playfully tease his younger brother,Michael, by squeezing his hand whenever
they greet each other.Those memories will be cherished and kept in our hearts.
I would like to thank all the parishioners,friends and priests for their support
and concern during the period of time spent worrying in Mount Alvernia's
Critical Condition Unit.It has been a very trying time,but with all your support
we have gotten through it.
I would also like to thank all the visitors to this blog who have left comforting
comments,you helped us get through too.
This blog will still be maintained by myself and SFA's Altar Server Jacob.
Do keep viewing and commenting.
