Close to Both of Ivan Gunawan's Parents, Ruben Onsu: I'm Attached to His Parents

Kapanlagi.com - Father Ivan Gunawan passed away on Sunday (12/7) last week. This incident shocked the family, including Ivan Gunawan's closest person, Ruben Onsu.

At that time, Ruben Onsu and Nikita Mirzani were met at the funeral home in Jagakarsa, South Jakarta, on Sunday (12/7). Ruben started telling about his closeness to Bambang, Ivan Gunawan's father.

"If with Igun, we have been working together for years, and with his parents, we just talk. When I approached his mother earlier, she just said she couldn't say anything anymore because the process was fast, she was also confused and didn't know what to say," Ruben said.

1. Admit Surprise When Hearing the News

Ruben said that before his departure, Ivan's father did not have any conversation. However, Sarwendah's husband said that he was very comfortable talking to Ivan's parents.

"No, there was no conversation at all. On average, whenever his parents called, I would always send food. Because he also knows that I like to eat, so whenever there is food, they would send it. I was really surprised because if Igun had an event, for example, with his family, I rarely talked to Igun's friends. I would always talk to Igun's mom and dad," he said.

The late Bambang's figure in Ruben's eyes was someone who was very humorous. Ruben said that when talking to him, it would make the moments even funnier.

"Talking to the late (Bambang) was really funny, just like talking to his son. So when we were close, we would keep talking. Especially when we sat down, if we made a promise at a restaurant, we wouldn't stop ordering food until we said we were full. That's why I was really shocked because he was a very good person and he also cared about his friends' children," he said.

"I didn't hear any complaints. If there was something with Igun, I would talk to him on the phone 5-6 times a day. There is no history of my dad being sick, none at all. I've been seeing Igun in his insta story, he's still at his coffee place. So there is no history of anything like that," he added.

3. Close to Ivan's Parents

As Ivan's friend, Ruben admits that he is also close to both of his parents. Especially since Ruben has been an orphan for a long time.

"Yes, because I am also an orphan. So when I see a friend who still has their parents, I stick with their parents. I came here to strengthen Mama, strengthen Igun to be patient and strong. Both of us express our deepest condolences," said Ruben.

At the end of the interview, Ruben and Nikita also invited other journalists to join in prayer. Once again, farewell to Bambang, Ivan Gunawan's father. May his good deeds and worship be accepted in His presence.
