My Father is In Heaven Now

I have been so nervous every time I open my facebook since I knew and got the message from there that my brother passed away on October 18, 2012 (in the midnight in US time) and it is the same way I heard about my father. He passed away on Saturday afternoon at 13.35 WIB at RS. AL Dr. Ramelan, Surabaya.

He has met my brother now and will celebrate Christmas in heaven together. What a lovely meeting. I can't hold my tears right now. I wish I will be there when he was sick and passed away. But I'm sure they will see me here celebrating Christmas with my family. They can see my family easier from heaven. Tonight at 11, I hope SKYPE will work clearly so I can see all the service before they bring him to the cemetery. "Go home with peace, father. I love you!" I send my prayer through the air and the wind will blow it slowly and bring it to you. Please, send my big hug to my brother. Tell him that I love him, too! I will always learn the good thing from you to always pray Our Father in Heaven every time before I end every prayer I say: "Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us each day our daily bread,

and forgive us our sins,
for we ourselves forgive everyone who is indebted to us.
And lead us not into temptation."
(The prayer as it occurs in Luke 11:2–4 (ESV)

My late brother's wedding day, April 1, 2012 at GKI. Hosea, Surabaya.

My late father wrapped the bride and the groom in red cloth, a symbol of a unity between 2 persons who are in love and get married.

My late brother's wedding day--with my parent.

Rest in peace. My late brother Agus Prihandoko
