Uncle Piu I Will Miss You

I'm truly sad today to hear of my Uncle Piu passing away this morning. We had been closer since my father passed away just two months ago. Uncle Piu kept asking us to visit to New Zealand and we kept putting it off, for all reasons, money, time, work etc etc. We planned to visit him in September this year, we were so excited about it as we haven't seen him and his family for quite some time and I've never met my Aunty Mary (his wife). Well now I will never see him again, it's too late, I wish I had visited him earlier. I cherish the fact that Uncle and I had kept in touch and feel that I am lucky to have had that. He was the closest relative to me on my father's side. My thoughts are with his family at this sad time. I truly wish that I had visited earlier. I am truly sorry Uncle Piu, I missed out on seeing you, we would have had some laughs I am sure. I am truly grateful that I had kept in touch with you and we became just that little bit closer.
