death before rubys arrival. at one of the typhoon ruby evacuation centers i was told of an old man who died last night due to fear and anxiety related to the coming typhoon. he would have been among the evacuees... i sought out the family and, providentially, saw this untimely midday procession unfolding at the boulevard. i asked and was told it was the same old man talked about at the evacuation center. the relatives had decided to bring him to a remote barrio upstream. there, at least, he would be safe from the storm surge. with their happy and grateful permission, we prayed and blessed the dead body before they sailed upstream. sail on, brother! sail on to the eternal evacuation place--where typhoons and storm surges and other calamities are no more.
