...this summer has really sucked big.
My best friend's been transferred out of town, I've lost 60% of my income due to the financial mess, and now this.
This is something I wish I didn't have to write. Goddess knows, I
really didn't want to.
It is with great heaviness of heart that I announce the passing of my daddy.
You can read his eulogy
here.
Sayonara, Papa-sama. Yo no nokori, nazenara anata ha anata no heiwa o e ta. (Farewell, honored father. Rest well, for you have earned your peace.)
Luv 'n hugs,
Mina-chan
