The heavy downpour served as such a poignant reminder of what he has done for us. It's so true of what was said 'Once he cried for our Nation. Now the Nation cries for him.' 

We rushed off to Jeremy's place after church to catch the state funeral and noted that although the rain has stopped at Tampines, it continued to rain on the procession route. When the alarm was sounded island-wide, Jeremy got all of us to stand up to mark the minute silence. Such is the GREAT man. Our founder.
