The beloved wife, Richa Novisha, appeared deeply affected by the departure of her husband, whom she married in 2009. The 39-year-old woman looked weak and her eyes were swollen, yet she tried to stay strong to accompany Gary to his final resting place.

The burial ceremony was not immediately carried out as soon as the body arrived at the edge of the grave. The family decided to postpone the burial for a moment while waiting for Gary's mother, who was reported to be stuck in traffic on her way to the location.

After anxiously waiting for about ten minutes, his mother finally arrived and the funeral ceremony began promptly. The sound of the prophet's praises echoed softly from the mouths of the mourners, accompanying the process of lowering the body of the D'Bijis movie star into the ground.

At the edge of the grave, Richa appeared to tightly grasp her children's hands as if to strengthen one another in the midst of sorrow. Her right hand held tightly the frame of a photo of the late Gary Iskak, while occasionally she received warm hugs from relatives who tried to comfort her.

The atmosphere grew more silent and solemn when one of the relatives descended into the grave to call the adhan in the ear of the deceased. The trembling sound of the adhan served as the final farewell according to religion before the body of the 52-year-old actor was completely covered by the earth.

Richa's gaze did not waver from her husband's grave for even a second during the burial process. This mother of two seemed to want to ensure that her soulmate was at peace and in the best position in his eternal resting place before truly parting from this world.

Richa's defense finally crumbled as the cemetery workers began to cover the grave with red soil until it was level. The cries of the woman born in Bogor erupted uncontrollably, while other family members appeared to try to remain calm, holding each other's hands to channel strength.
