Dear June and Glen,
I missed your Mom, dearly. We, our classmates Canton China, and your Mom shared wonderful time and memories. We become very lonely at times, as many of our close friends leave us unexpectedly. Hopefully, we still can linger on those treasured moments, until one day some of us don't even remember who we are! We have fun and joy; we have through many new changes, including the convenience and affordability to travel abroad, social economics changes, technology advancement and now we are facing the war on Covid-19.

My sincerest condolences to you and your family, June. Although we can't be with you physically, at this unfortunate time, our thoughts and prayers are!
May she rest in peace.
So sorry to hear about Kam. We would like to extend our condolences to all of her family.
