一切荣耀及赞美归于主,因为他给了我们王淇友兄弟。
淇友兄弟的安所弥撒,在今天早上十时正,假吉隆坡甲洞的『圣爱堂』举行。他曾为这个堂区作出了各种奉献,包括新教堂的筹募建筑基金及建立团体的工作,特别是华语教友团体。
弥撒共有六位神父共祭:堂区主任苏瑞恩神父,蔡钊发神父,黄大华神父,林进发神父,邓英伟神父及新铎李义兴神父。
好多位修女,及超过三百名的亲朋戚友,参加了这个庄严的弥撒圣祭。
淇友的长子威廉,非常动人的分享了一些有关父亲的感人事迹。他举出了爸爸每天一大早就起来,为家人准备早餐的事, 道尽了一位作为丈夫和父亲,爱他家庭的行动表现。
他勇敢的面对病痛带给肉体的各种折磨。他从不作出不必要的要求或指令,但却常常的对自己的病痛,带给家人的不便,深感疚歉。
病痛,包括每个星期三次的透析(洗肾),绝对不能阻扰他照顾家庭,及为他人与团体服务的决心。
他是一位忠贞的圣母军团员,堂区送圣体员及基基团协调员。
他的座右铭是:『只要自己能够做到的,就去做吧!』。这句话,也将会永远的铭记在家人及朋友们的心坎里。
弥撒结束后,全体共诵了圣母军周会的全部经文,标志着他在世时的最后一次会议。
过后,他的遗体安葬在万桡的基督徒坟场。
愿一切光荣及赞美归于天主!
Honour and Praise to God, for giving us Francis Ong as our brother.
Funeral Mass of Francis Ong was held today at 10:00am at the Jesus Caritas Church Kepong which he has contributed in many ways towards the building of the church and people, especially the Mandarin-speaking community.
The Mass was con-celebrated by six priests: Parish Priest Fr. Surin, Fr. Philip Chua, Fr. Lawrence Ng, Fr. Clement Lim, Fr. Martin Then and newly ordained Fr. Augustine Li.
Many religious Sisters and more than 300 relatives and church members attended this solemn Eucharistic celebration.
In a moving testimony, his son William shared about his father's love for the family, quoting an example of him getting up in the early morning daily, preparing breakfast for the whole family.
He bore his suffering courageously. He didn't make unnecessary requests or demands but always feeling sorry for "troubling" his family.
His physical illnesses, including dialysis 3 times a week, were never the obstacle preventing him to care and serve for his family, people and the community.
As for community services, he served as a faithful legionary, Communion Minister and dedicated BEC coordinator.
His motto was, and will always be remembered by family and friends : If I am able to do it, just do it lah !!
After Mass, Legion's prayers were recited. It signified being the last meeting on earth for him.
Later, his body was laid to rest at the Rawang Christian Cemetery.
May all Honour and Praise be to God !
