Traditional Buddhist cremation

The Khmer people of Phnom Penh lost a great soul of 93. Mr Yin is survived by his wife of 70 years and 7 children and 10 grandchildren. He started his career at age 20 as a police officer but at age 35 was forced to flee and abandon his wife of 19 years at the time and 4 children to escape certain death of the Khmer Rouge. When the Khmer Rouge fell he left Vietnam and had to walk part of the way back to Phnom Penh and find his family, not knowing if they had survived or not. I had the opportunity to know this man over the last 14 months and it was a absolute pleasure. RIP Mr Yin
