Settle a R.I.P place for my Ancestor.

Another day has pass for last week of holiday.

Today was a busy day for me and my parent as we went to LTA (Land Transport Authority) for settle some stuff regarding my Ancestor.

Well this Ancestor of my was my Father Grandma, or should i say Great-Grandma for me. Cos this thing that we want to settle for Great-Grandma is because her buried place at a place call GuangXiaoShan, Kwong Hou Sua in Teochew or in chinese (广孝山). This old cemetery are about to be exhumed soon. This place also known as the WWII War site ( I also known from other website like SPI.com)

For such a long time never pray a respect to her for the past Qing Ming as the place quite hard to find and also my dad don't know where is her tomb and which entry to go in for the Chinese cemetery. Also my uncle which is my 大伯 already pass away few years ago cos he is the one who know my Great Grandma tomb location.

From what i know is her tombstone got two name crave on. One is her name and the other one is my Great Grandpa name which i know from my dad that my Grandma alive that time put his urn with my Grand Uncle which is my Grandma Older brother together at the Yishun columbarium long time ago.

After settle my Great Grandma Rest place to relocate which columbarium with the LTA staff. We went straight to Bandai columbarium as we decided to place her urn at there after the exhumed which start to dig her body on Dec 9th.

Don't know is it fate or not, the place to put her urn are the same columbarium block which my Da Bo urn also put at the same place.

So next time Qing Ming my family and relative will go and pray another Ancestor at bandai columbarium.

Here are some link related to the cemetery.
