He further expressed: "The rites are over.. to ashes they have been reduced.. a crowded hall in the home filled with the close-knitted relatives and dear friends, embrace break down, hold hands, hold.."
"..and the silence of condolence gradually creeps in.."
"..polite conversation, of reminisce, of association, of happy times spent together, of the fight and struggle for the ailment for years.. and most of all the loneliness of them that are left behind.. the vacuum.. the emptiness.. the presence that filled up the entire home.. lost and gone.."
"..that empty favourite chair .. that corner of preference .. the unstinted care and concern for all when present , now suddenly not in existence."
He added: "The voice of the bird that built her little nest, heard no more.. the delicate nest shedding its strains of the making.. the command the control the authority, suddenly absent.."
