Ode to a good neighbour

This is a an ode to a neighbour who has been a great help and good friend to my parents in Alor Setar, Kedah. Mohd Mumtaz Abdul Ahmad, 31 married with two small children had a dangerous hobby – riding Superbikes. His was a black 1000cc superbike and was member of the Kedah Bikers’ Club.

On Sunday, his tragic and lethal accident was highlighted in almost all of the local dailies. His bike was on flames and died on the spot. He was riding along with a fellow biker to a wedding when this tragic event took place. His friend suffered the same fate.

In My Mind
by Jenn Farrell

Somewhere in my dreams tonight
I’ll see you standing there
You look at me with a smile
“Life isn’t always fair”

You say you were chosen for his garden
His preciously hand picked bouquet
“God really needed me,
That’s why I couldn’t stay”

It’s said to be that angels
Are sent from above
I’ve always had my angel
My brother – whose heart was filled with love

Wherever the ocean meets the sky
There will be memories of you and I
When I look up at that sky so blue
All I see are visions of you

“While there’s a heart in me, you’ll be a part of me.”

My condolences to his wife and kids.

Well both bikers were very experienced bikers. They are used to travel the highways like it was their own. I heard that they lost control and bumped into each other. Oil slick on the road maybe! I guess it is a freak accident Judy!

LM – true such is life. To understand it means you are GOD or a Lunatic.
HeHEhehehehe!

yep sis just a day before he died he helped dad repair the garden water pipe when he saw dad struggling with it. No question asked, he just took his tool box and came across and repaired the pipe.

Thank you for remembering my husband as a good man. Yes..he is a good man. We thank God also for blessing us with such a great neighbour like Mr. & Mrs George. Uncle George is like a grandpa to my son (5 years old). Thank you.
