Dear Wong family,
I met your Mom when I was a boy at Curdes Missionary Church and had the joy of singing in the choir your Da lead and served as our youth sponsor. Years later when I met my wife (Cheryl Roth) to be I had the pleasant joy of reconnecting with your parents at Brookside Church since Cheryl's brother was the pastor. Over the years your Mom has hosted us for meals, sent birthday and anniversary card faithfully over the years. There are many more memories yet too many to mention of her gracious, kind and quiet spirit she demonstrated of. Her love for Jesus in her life. She will be missed.
Our love and prayers,
Earl and Cheryl Cecil
