June 14, which was yesterday, is nine (9) days after Eugene's interment. A small family gathering for prayers was held at the Manila Memorial Park at Sucat, Parañaque attended by family, friends, classmates and colleagues of Eugene. For more info on the event, I have a separate blog about this at MarmolOnline.com/weblog, the Official Marmol Family Blog which I also maintain. More photos of our visit to Eugene can also be found at my Flickr.

As you may have noticed, I have been out since Monday. Just got back late Thursday. My dear brother-in-law Eugene Marmol passed away Friday morning following an accelerated pneumonia that compounded his recent heart surgery at the Philippine Heart Center. He has been ill since late last year but we never could have expected such a sudden death. He was a good man, too good a man to die, and at such an early age. He was just 28 years old. He had a bright future ahead of him. But God must have a plan for him, even better than any of us can give Eugene. We would like to thank all those who sympathized with us, attended the wake and the interment and those who have supported us, specially my mom-in-law, who was most devastated by this tragedy.

The following video is a tribute made by Eugene's friends and was shown prior to laying Eugene to his final resting place at the Manila Memorial Park - Sucat. The outpour of love and sympathy has been overwhelming. Family, friends, co-workers, neighbors and classmates have stayed with us and comforted us in this time of grief. Thank you so much.

I have a separate blog tribute to Eugene in my personal blog.

I do not know how to start this post. And if a blogger needs to be inspired to blog, then I am not a blogger tonight. For tonight, it is not inspiration that prompts me to write. It is grief. Tonight, after a week of blogging hiatus, I come back to blog not of excitement but of sadness. I have been restraining myself from writing about this but I guess doing so is an important part of healing -- healing for the entire family. And so, here goes. I have lost a brother.
