Over whiskey and scotch...

Had the rare opportunity to hang out with Anderson.  I don't know the last time we did it... but it's too long to remember.  We got together... shared things we were thankful for... commiserated a little on life... and gave Anderson the chance to pour his heart out over the passing of his father.

昌伯伯 was well into his late seventies if not early eighties.  In recent years, he had a stroke and hasn't been his normal self.  The final year of his life... he was bed ridden and completely depended on loved ones to care for him.  His quality of life... was not that high quality.  Thankfully.. he was surrounded by his son... his daughter-in-law... 3 beautiful grandchildren, including little Nathaniel.  And of course, the love of his life for 50 years. 

"I miss him.  I didn't get a chance to say good bye."  Forget regrets... but sometimes, life passes by so fast that all you get to do is regret.  

I didn't know the man well... but he seemed to have lived life to the fullest.  He provided for his family.  Was a loving son. An honorable father.  And to wrap up this post... the love of HER life for 50 years.

Rest in peace 昌伯伯.  Till we meet again...
