8 Photos of Verrell Bramasta Accompanying His Grandparent to the Cemetery, Wanted to Break Fast Together with His Grandchild

Since childhood, Verrell grew up close to his grandmother who was always by his side. He felt immense love from his grandmother who took care of him. "Grandma mama who liked to take care of me since I was little," said Verrell at TPU Karet Bivak, Central Jakarta, Wednesday (19/3/2025).

One of the most memorable moments for Verrell was when he underwent the circumcision ceremony. At that time, his grandmother showed great concern by staying over to accompany him. "The ones who stayed at home were grandma mama and grandma papa," he said.

Verrell's grandmother is known to suffer from a condition that causes short-term memory loss. Although she often forgets recent events, she can still clearly remember old times. "Grandma mama also suffers from short term porilos disease. So short-term memories are often forgotten," he explained.

Although his memory is limited, Grandpa Verrell always recognizes his grandchildren, including Verrell and Athalla. In fact, there was a unique moment when he mistakenly called him by an unusual term. "So when you meet me, the beautiful grandchild of grandpa," he added.

As a grandchild, Verrell often spends time with his grandpa, especially during the month of Ramadan. He admitted that he always makes time to gather, particularly during the holy month. "If friends follow my digital trail, I like to spend the holy month with my grandma," he said.

Grandpa Verrell has also been a witness to various achievements in the entertainment and political world. He feels grateful that his grandpa got to see many of his journeys. "What I am grateful for is that all my achievements have him as a witness," he said.

When Verrell successfully bought a house from his work in the entertainment world, his grandfather was present and felt happiness with him. Likewise, when Verrell ventured into the world of politics, his grandfather also witnessed the development of his career. "When I became a representative of the people, my grandfather also witnessed it. That became a source of pride," he said.

However, there is one thing that Verrell deeply regrets. He could not fulfill his grandfather's invitation to break the fast together three days before his passing. "That is what I regret, three days ago my grandfather actually invited us to break the fast together," he said. /far
