Not sure what to say?

I will always remember Mrs Chiu fondly as she and her husband Dr PP were very kind and gracious to me, my mom, and my sister.

Dear Sin-Tung and family,
My deepest and sincerest sympathy to you. Sin-Tung, you have always been a gracious and caring man, teacher and son. I fondly remember your care and concern as I cared for my mother during her very long illnesses. We have our memories, and their love. That will never leave us. Best wishes, always, Sara Johnson (and Sara and Daniel)(and the Community Music Center families)

Dear Yanek, Mary and Family, We were so sorry to hear of your loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Sin-Tung,

Once again, it has been a pleasure knowing Mrs. Chiu and sharing tea and conversations in our teahouse for the last 16 years. Mrs. Chiu's advice and support has been very dear to our hearts. Please know that our best wishes and thoughts are with you.

To the Chiu family,losing Bella is more than a loss to all her loved ones,but a loss to my own link to childhood in Hong Kong. I'll always remember her genuine interest in others and her encouragement for others to achieve her or his full potentials. A truly remarkable woman of her times. She'll remain my inspiration forever.

With sadness and gratitude for so much beauty brought into this world.

Dear Sin-Tung,

It was an honor to meet your Mother on several occasions. Please accept my deepest sympathies to you and your family.

Dear Yeeha, Yee-Wan, Sin-Chong, Yanek and Sin-Tung,

We have lost a great family friend. Hong Kong has lost a generous supporter of the arts and a great citizen.

We shall always remember Aunty Bella for her graciousness and her cultural refinement as well as her gentle smile.

Our prayers are with you all.

With our deepest condolences,
Nelly and Kenneth Fung
