"He's gone." That was the last I heard about Lolo Ed. I felt a mixture of sadness and
fear. The tears that I shed weren't enough to express my grief.
Lolo was my ultimate protector and supporter. He was the first person to congratulate
me when I won 6th place in the Regional Schools Press Conference. My world wouldn't
be complete without my grandfather.
My grandfather suffered from cancer. It was too late when he discovered that he had
the disease. If it were detected earlier, he might have lived.
He was a quiet man. Even when he was suffering, he hid his fear and pain. He made
sure that everybody would not worry about him. He want to be treated like everything
was normal.
Losing Lolo Ed was hard. I miss his silly jokes and shocking statements. I especially
miss his messages on my phone , wishing me good luck whenever I needed it.
But I know he's in God's hand now watching my every move.
