Not sure what to say?

Dr Yam left knowledge in so many ways. He explained to me if I cannot bring my knowledge to the point others cannot understand then it is no good. How true as I carried on in science to teach others. Dr Yam was so kind and patient. Thank you Dr Yam

saved my life in 1988...he was cutting his grass at his home and suddenly realized what had happened to me....miss you Dr. Yam

My husband, Kent, & Dr Yan were classmates at Pui Ching School & Tai Da University in Taiwan.
We had getogether once or twice in CA decades ago. Kent thought of him so very highly... a gentleman, a scholar, a kind, sincere, dedicated person. I always looking for a chance to know him & his family a little more.
Before 60th Reunion/2014 of his Pui Ching Class, he left... that's sad. His classmates'll miss him so much.
Take good care, Mrs Yam.
