懷念表姑
香港有一句俗語說：「一代親、二代表、三代嘴藐藐。」
素華表姑是我阿嬤的表兄那一支系，照常理的輩份到了我們這一代算是遠房親戚，應該是．．．嘴藐藐呀。但是我所認識的表姑卻是一位滿有愛心的親戚，她對人關懷備至、真心誠意、沒有半點虛假，是她付出了愛心把我們的關係拉近。
自從一九九九年移居美國，剛開始的生活很不愉快和不順利，幸好表姑每一年都會來美國探訪我們。她常用神的話語鼓勵我、安慰我，更用禱告支持我，使我能夠堅強地站起來，我很感激她對我的愛護。沒想到今年年頭的相聚竟是最後的一次，真是世事難料。表姑的離去，並不表示我們的親戚關係就此結束，希望我們的表表們能夠持續下去。
表姑，那美好的仗你已經打過了，當跑的路你已經跑盡了。如今你在天上領受神所賜榮耀的冠冕，比起你在地上熱心事奉神更光榮。我們都為你而驕傲，你活出基督的馨香、榮耀了神、也祝福了人，成為我們學習的好榜樣。
素華表姑我們永遠懷念你！
表侄女淑卿致敬

永懷潔如姐
I am 翠芬, third sister of 虹如, currently living in London, England. In 1971 I travelled to Taiwan to search for my father's siblings, with whom he had lost touch for over 35 years. The first person I met was 潔如姐 who was extremely hospitable and went to great lengths to introduce me the rest of the family, including 大伯父, 大伯母 and 细淑. A few months later, after so long apart, my father was then reunited with his brother's and their families. It was the happiest I had seen my father since he lost his wife, my mother, years before and it could not have been made possible without 潔如姐. Between 1971 and 1977 I visited 潔如姐 4 times in Taiwan and we became quite close before I moved to London. The next time I saw her was in 1997 in Kuching Malaysia at my niece's wedding. She immediately came to me and joked "你脸还是一样，人就是比较大个了!". This was typical of the sense of humour that she had, and the laughs that we always shared. I saw her last year and she was in fantastic spirits, filled with laughter and her death has come as a shock to us. We will miss her, and not forget her as she has made a fantastic impression on us all.

潔如姐 was very loved and will be missed greatly.
I am 翠柳 and I echoed what my brotehr, 虹如 wrote about 潔如姐. I was very sad to hear of her passing. I met her only 3 times and yet it felt like we had known each other forever. She helped connect my siblings and I with our roots in China. Through her we got more glimpses of how our father was like in China. I am most appreciative of those stories and thankful that some of these are in the book that she recently wrote. I am thankful to have a copy. I also am very fortunate to have one of her paintings hanging in my dinning room here in Orlando, Florida. 潔如姐 was very loved and will be missed greatly.
My deepest condolence to the family.
God's blessings, 翠柳 (Serena Gui, Orlando, FL, USA)

9 of My best memories
After the service, my brothers and sisters and their families gathered together for a picture. If you blow up this photo, you can make out the white object in the middle is a mass of white lilies in the shape of a heart with her urn in the middle and purple orchids is the shape of a big smile, for as a Christian she happily joins heaven.
8 of My best memories
Her funeral service at my first church in Taipei. Over 300 people in attendance. Four choirs sang in the service. You can visit Amy's Blog to hear their angelic singing. God's sweet presence was so strong when the choirs sang, I'd say this is probably one of the best funerals I have ever attended.
7 of My best memories
A picture of Keith, Walter, my oldest brother, Mina, mom, Louise (Wally's wife) and Wally, my youngest brother at my big brother's house during one of her visits to the USA late in 2007.
6 of My best memories
My mother was able to enjoy the whole trip with us. Again, we told stories, sang songs, prayed and just had fun together. This is the east entrance to the Gorge National Park, just a week before she passed. God's unbelievable grace kept her well till the last, although by this time her inoperable cancer had spread all through her body.
5 of My best memories
July of this year, all six of our brothers and sisters plus Oliver and Cindy, traveled the Taiwan Island for the last time with my mom. On this morning, after breakfast we sang songs, we prayed and then had this picture taken. What a nice memory.
4 of My best memories
February & June-July of this year, Keith & I and Oliver traveled to Taiwan to visit her and the family, I tried to teach them how to make balloon figures, with the hope that they can use the skill to further God's kingdom with the children.
3 of My best memories
She was also active in the community. This picture shows President of Taiwan, Mr. Ma, giving her an award for outstanding community service.

2 of My best memories
My mom taught free lessons and sang in the park near-by, she taught tai-chi, sword dance & fan dance until several months before she died. She passed away at the age of 81.
1 of My best memories--by Mina
About 31 years ago, my family started a church in Taipei, I am standing next to my mom. I was wearing long hair on the very right of this picture. My mom has been faithfully and diligently serving in this church ever since.
懷念主内的好姐妹
親愛的維麗、維義：平安
去年底返台和令慈歡聚，她的熱情、活潑、喜樂還清晰在我眼前，料不到竟是我們在世上最後一面，下次回去已少了這位主内的好姐妹。但我們知道將來到了天家還要在一起。
抱歉我因服事工作唯我一人是全職同工，難以輕易離開，故託付在臺北的兒媳秀梅前去參加令慈安息禮拜，以表誠敬哀思。她告訴我參與者眾，「人山人海」這是她用的形容詞，令我極爲感動。因爲令慈生平爲人熱心、愛心待人，有基督徒美好的見證，榮神益人，這一切從她的告別禮拜上，明顯的看到了衆人對她的敬愛和不捨，令人欣慰。相信身為她兒女親人也必引以爲榮為慰。
感謝讚美愛我們的主，接忠心的信徒安息在天家。願主安慰你們惜別的心，繼續愛主服事主，將來都要在天家永遠相聚。
請轉達與維玲、小妹和兩位兄長均此不另。
祝 以馬内利

"大姨"的話 (外甥 芊亘)
大姨~~從小到大每次看到你，你的臉上總是掛著微笑，總是告訴我們要好好讀書，長大做個有用的人！每次看到你，總是那麼的健康、那麼的有活力，有時候我會問媽~~為什麼大姨都不會變老！每隔一段時間在見到她都會感覺大姨又年輕了許多。
每次大姨上台講話，就會覺得大姨整個人都變了，講話是這麼的鏗鏘有力，這麼的莊嚴，但是卻不失親和力！讓每個人都會很認真的聽你說話！
你是整個家族的中心、支柱！就算你已到了天國，你仍是大家心中最有力的依靠，我會永遠的記得你那溫暖又有力量的笑容！在這裡我用這首歌代表了我對你的思念！
阿嬤的話~~
作詞：蕭煌奇 作曲：蕭煌奇 編曲：胡官宏
在細漢的時陣 阮阿嬤對我尚好 甲尚好的物伴攏會留乎我
伊嘛定定帶我去幼稚園看人在七桃
看人在辦公伙兒 看人在覓相找
伊定定跟阮說 叫阮著要好好仔讀冊
嘸通大漢像恁老爸仔這麼狼狽
在彼個時陣 阮攏聽攏嘸
阿嬤 你到底是在講什麼
大漢了後 才知影阿嬤的話
我會甲永遠永遠放塊心肝底
想到一步一步的過去 定定攏會乎人真難忘
時間一分一秒塊過去 在阮的心內定定攏會想到伊
阿嬤你今嘛在叨位 阮在叫你你甘有聽到
阮的認真甲阮的成功你甘有看到 阮在叫你你知影沒
阿嬤你今嘛過的好麼 甘有人塊甲你照顧
希望後世人阮擱會凍來乎你疼 作你永遠的孫仔
擱叫你一聲「阿嬤」

我們永遠的潔如姐
維義及各位賢甥 ：
大家好，今天收到你們寄來的訃文，心裏非常悲傷。去年潔如姐、大伯母和細嬸老遠的從臺灣來馬來西亞參加小女婚宴，真是給我臉上貼金，我除了高興之外也萬分感激。我們和碧如、翠芬、翠柳等有說有笑，像年輕人一樣玩得那麽開心，真是太高興了。笑聲還在心中迴響，人卻已是陰陽兩隔，好心痛啊！
華人新年初一我有打幾次電話給大姐，但總是沒有人接聼，過後就忘了。現在想起來，大姐那時是病了。我真後悔爲什麽過後沒有再打電話呢?
兩個月前，翠柳還提議明年五月叫翠芬、碧如和我一同去臺灣找潔如姐玩，如今這個提議行不通了。
潔如姐爲人慷慨又重親情，對我們堂弟妹也是呵護備至，和她在一起我們一點都沒有生疏的感覺，更深深的感覺到她的善良與慈祥。她對外人也是那麽的和藹可親，記得去年在古晉時，我帶她去教堂做禮拜，要離開的時候，遇到幾個朋友。他們都對我說：“虹如啊！你堂姐人真好哩！”大家都對她稱讚不已。
潔如姐對我和我的姐妹無異甚至更好。去年還教我國語拼音，說公公在中國的故事給我聼，又和我一起打太極拳，這點點滴滴我都會留在心中。
潔如姐現在安息主懷，你等也要節哀。等耶穌基督再來的時候，我們就可再見面了。
順祝平安
