Yes, we had a wonderful gathering on 11th October at Taman Tasik Ampang Hilir. As I had promised to upload some of the photos, here they are:
Osman and Othman
Moslim with daughter (back) and Othman while Zambri and Osman at the background
Burhan talking to Megat and wife
Rauff listening to Megat and Osman's conversation
As the person taking charge of the food, Burhan asked Fauzan and Othman if they need more
The rest of the family members prefer the shade and to be seated
The second generations made friends easily as did their parents
yes ... recalling the good old days stories (Zambri, Burhan, Rauff and Megat standing while Othman seated)
we talk, and talk, and talk ...
everybody were busy talking
Sis. Yaman (Osman) talking to Sis. Norliza (Moslim) while their children prefer to talk standing
Brother Osman and family left for Dubai yesterday en route to Khartoum bringing back sweet memories of a short stay in Malaysia meeting long lost friends. It was also unfortunate that some of us were not able to make it.
However, Shuki Osman made an extra effort taking a trip all the way from Kulim to meet Osman Mokhtar El-Mubarak at Batu Ferringhi despite he was not feeling well and being on medication.
Thank you Shuki for the wonderful lunch and sharing some of the nostalgic photos.

Semoga Allah merahmati dan panjangkan umur kita semua agar dapat berjumpa lagi di masa hadapan.
