Cheerful Aunty Fauziah

You'd never knew how much you'd missed that someone until that person is gone... Aunty Fauziah passed away on Tuesday afternoon, December 11, 2007 after a long battle with lung cancer. She was surrounded by her children and husband when she drew her last breath.

I remember Aunty as the cheerful person and full of life. Her motherly personality extends to those beyond her brood. She made me welcomed to the Shamsir Clan and shared lots of wisdom. When Danial grows up, I want Danial to know this.

She was a fighter to the very end. For a lady of a small frame, she had the will power of a giant. In a way, with Allah's blessing, she was prepared to face her end of the journey. She made preparation; for herself, as well as her children. Typical of Aunty Fauziah, a perfectionist to the final detail.

Though she's no longer with us physically, I know in my heart that she's with us spiritually. There's a little of Aunty Fauziah in Hazlan, Azhan and Liris; even Batrisha and Sabrina to remind us of her bubbly personality. I know Aunty wants us to remember her that way.

Semoga Allah mencucuri rahmat ke atas Aunty Fauziah dan semoga dia berada dikalangan umatNya yang beriman, Amin.
