To my dear brother Simon in Heaven
Time lapsed just like flashes in front of my eyes, you have left 3 months now, as time goes by, I miss you more, I didn't realize it can be so sad, I must confess that I haven't done enough and I wish if time can rewind back I could have done better. A few weeks ago, when I went for 3 weeks holiday, I carried with me was a small amount of your ash, in my heart I deeply wanted you can come along because you told me you have never been to a cruise holiday, I am going for another cruise holiday next February, once again I will bring you along, at the end of the journey, I shall release you in the South Pacific water, rest in peace and together with our mother have eternal life in God's home, no more worry and suffer no more. I will remember you in my heart till we meet again.  Anna

Dear Mr. Yeung,
There are no words to express my respect for you!  Although we only met a few times, I deeply feel that you are full of love, hospitality, and smile.  You are a good father and love your daughters so much.  Thank you for upbringing Agnes and caring Walter!  Our Lord eased yours earth's toil, but we will see you in heaven again.

With respect and yearning

My dearest Uncle Simon, your death filled me with acute sorrow.  I still remember the days when I used to come to your home in Taikoo Shing.  May your soul receive eternal peace and hope all the family members be blessed with enough courage to overcome this difficult time.

Simon my dearest brother
No word can express how much I missed you, the time we share together. the conversation, our memory since childhood, good time bad time, every single minute I can never forget  and will treasure in my heart. Now that you are in heaven with our Lord, I am happy for you, suffer no more, rest in peace, my dearest brother, I love you xxxxxxxxx

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Dear Simon,
No words can describe our feelings of Simon departing us. I can recall the very first moments back in 1993 when I went to Hkg and for the very first time meeting you (Simon Yeung) and eldest brother (John Yeung). We had a wonderful Chinese dinner together in Hung Hum in Hong Kong (saying in Cantonese for the suburb). I felt I was immediately being accepted to be part of the Yeung family simply because of the great hospitality given to me by Simon and John. The very next day; Simon took the effort by taking leave off work and together with Gloria took me to Ocean Park in Hkg. We had a wonderful time in Ocean Park i.e. having more time to know each other better. This was because Anna and I will be getting married soon and it was my first time meeting Anna's both brothers in Hong Kong. Then; Simon and his two daughters immigrated to Vancouver, Canada. In 1995, Anna and I flew to Vancouver to visit Simon and again; Simon took very good care of us during our stay in Vancouver. In 2010, Simon's youngest daughter (Agnes Yeung) got married. Anna and I flew to Vancouver to attend the wedding. It was a last minute call for me to make the decision to fly to Vancouver to attend the wedding because Anna mentioned that; Yeung family side is very small in attendance for the wedding. I wanted to provide morale support to the Yeung family and decided to fly over to Vancouver from Sydney to attend Simon's youngest daughter wedding. Simon was very grateful of our attendance of the wedding and I explained to Simon; the focus must be on the subject i.e. his daughter's wedding and certainly not on us. I was also very glad that Simon, Anna and I (the 3 of us) flew to Las Vegas during our time in Vancouver and we spent a wonderful time together e.g. we had fantastic breakfasts, lunches and dinners and enjoyed the magic shows in Las Vegas. I can see Simon was very excited indeed because Simon was talking non-stop; so the 3 of were chit-chatting all the way; right up to boarding the plane and one "Kwai-lo" kept banging his seat in the plane and told us to keep quiet because he wanted to hear the safety announcement just before the plane take-off. My only regret was Simon didn't join us when Anna and I went for the Alaska cruise during our stay in Vancouver in 2010. I offered and had suggested Simon to join us but somehow Simon kept resisting my offer and only chose the Las Vegas trip. If I would have known of the up-coming of Simon's condition; I would have insisted Simon to join us for the Alaska cruise too. Now Simon has departed us; Simon has indirectly taught me; we have to appreciate all our love ones while we have the opportunity to do so. Anyway; all these good times shall be cherished in my memory now. 

Simon; 
You are truly a very good brother to me and a very caring person too. I always felt very close to you as we spoke on the phone although you are in Vancouver and I am in Sydney. I can see; you really loved your two daughters tremendously and even in one of your last moments of breath; you always told me on the phone to take good care of your two daughters (Clara and Agnes) including Anna. I shall miss a wonderful and loving brother. 

Love you always.
Calvin and Anna
