Vista Writing
In April 15 2012, a person passed away that Vista Project can never forget, so we created a speech, one that would be the best.

Poem/Speech
Grandpa (father) was very important,
without him we wouldn`t be here.
Now he is gone, we can remember him as-
Good and Kind, Warm and Happy, Positive and Optimistic-
and all the things you can remember him as.
I hope he enjoys his new life because- although you may be filled with grief and shock,
sorrow and distress, he did have a tough life- enduring cultural changes, confronting
with failures among others. - - but now, we can be filled with beautiful memories,
Of when he was young, when he was strong, when he was old and when he was weak.
No matter what he did, he will always be our father and grandfather, brother and
uncle, and a human being, which is why, at some stage he will have to die.
- Now he is in heaven, and no longer feels the things we hate to feel, no longer worries
about things we hate to worry about, it would console you to know that all of
you still have a wonderful family, a wonderful life, in this splendid country we
live in. And we will all remember who it was that came here first, so we
could all come and share the bountiful opportunities it offered.
Although this may be a heavy loss, he-, I am sure, is now at peace and very happy
in the paradise called heaven. (Thankyou and God Bless you all.)
