JAKARTA - Sad news came from Kikan Namara or better known as Kikan Chocolate. The mother, Indira Damayanti passed away today, Tuesday, August 8 at 13.20 WIB.

Kikan himself confirmed the sad news. To the media crew at the funeral home located in Ciputat, South Tangerang, the vocalist of the band Chocolate said that his mother's condition was not good enough in the last six months.

"Mother has been sick for the past 6 months," said Kikan in Ciputat, South Tangerang on Tuesday, August 8 evening.

The mother is planned to be buried at Jeruk Purut Public Cemetery on Wednesday, August 9 at around 11.00 WIB.

"Incidentally, my family members passed away, some were buried there, including my grandmother," said Kikan.

"Mother is indeed buried there, so that is also one of the considerations, so that it is close, so that the pilgrimage time is not complicated, in one place you can visit many families," he continued.

Remembering his mother, Kikan told how his last vacation moment was with his mother last April. He admitted that he had time to think that the holiday was the last time for his mother.

"This spread fell in April, from Ramadan, the mother had already said that she wanted family vacations, and the grandchildren were busy. And finally we immediately arranged it. So, after Eid, we left for the big family to Bali," said Kikan.

"At that time I thought about it and it crossed my mind, 'how come, maybe this is the last vacation', it turns out to be true. It turned out to be his last vacation," he continued.

For Kikan, his mother is a democratic parent and can be a friend to his children. The mother is a place to devote everything in her heart, even since Kikan was a child.

My mother is a democratic mother. As long as I know her, she is not only a tough mother figure, but also an irreplaceable friend. From a young age, I almost didn't tell her anything, I told everything. If I have a problem, discussions with her always have a way out. That's what makes me feel like I lost my discussion friends. But God willing, he is in a better place, "concluded Kikan Chocolate.
