This is the story of how a Singaporean businessman honored his family members, thanked them and celebrated his life in words – and his message is going viral online for one good reason. While this man named Ong Peck Lye may seem like an ordinary person, his confessions in poetry form were created when he knew that his time to go was drawing near.
In the obituary, he confesses his greatest regrets, his most touching moments in life as well as his appreciation for his family members who stood by him. Now that has brought tears to my own eyes – just by reading this!
Take a look at his message:
Rest in peace, Mr Ong.
Share away, people.
