"Couldn't get this scene out of my head the entire day, had to sketch it out somehow. I truly believe that they will be reunited at last. Thank you Mr LKY, you will always be in our hearts."

For Mr Lee, Singapore has been his labor of love until his last day on earth.
Perhaps it is richly deserving that Mr Lee should be united with Mrs Lee and find rest after a life's labour.
“For reasons of sentiment, I would like part of my ashes to be mixed up with Mama’s, and both her ashes and mine put side by side in the columbarium.
We were joined in life and I would like our ashes to be joined after this life.”
