Forum: Toilet cleaner aunty took the hard knocks of life in her stride
UPDATED MAY 01, 2025, 05:00 AM
The toilet cleaner at my office died suddenly three weeks ago. She was in her 70s. I didn’t notice her death until a colleague mentioned it to me in passing.
Aunty was a very warm and friendly person. She was always the first to reach the office. She would greet me with a warm smile every morning.
Aunty was childless, and looked after her husband, who has dementia. She was stoic in facing her hardship and never grumbled about her fate. She took leave only to take her husband for medical appointments.
Aunty represented the pioneer generation of Singaporeans who worked hard and never sought an easy way out.
Life must have been hard for her at her age. Her perseverance and determination in dealing with her life is something that is admirable.
