Pada tahun 2000, istrinya meninggal, tak lama kemudian anaknya juga menyusul karena sakit yang dideritanya. Keadaan demikian tak mematahkan semangat beliau untuk melanjutkan hidup, terlebih beliau juga merawat cucu-cucunya.
Berselang waktu, beliau kini hidup sendiri. Cucunya yang meramaikan rumah sekarang ikut dengan orang tuanya. Meski demikian, hari-harinya tetap dilalui dengan terus beraktivitas seperti biasa seperti bermasyarakat, beribadah, dan berjualan. Bersyukur beliau memiliki tetangga dan pengurus kampung yang memperhatikan dirinya.
Di akhir beliau berbagi tips tentang segar wajah dan badannya di usianya yang sudah lanjut, “Hidup itu dibuat nyaman, bersyukur. Saya juga suka gojek lo, Bu.” ucapnya.
