Winchiu Family,

Our belated sincere and profound condolences to your family on your most recent loss. Our families have always had a special bond brought about by the charisma and character of your late mother, Amy. My mother as do all of our family held Amy in very high esteem and I know that the Pretorians all do. This by no means confines it only to the South Africans as she is also well-known in the Inter-national scene. I have had the good fortune of meeting her not only in South Africa, as I was growing up, but also doubly blessed time and again, meeting her in Hong Kong and also here in Canada. We will dearly miss her and forever cherish her memory. Amy, Rest in Peace. Love.

The Jackson Family.

Dear Shirley and Ken,

I have just read your email, tears streaming down my face. Just a week or two ago, when I was enjoying Justin and Jessica's wedding pictures, I was marvelling at how young and elegant she looked. It is so hard to believe she slipped away so quietly. The world is the poorer for her going.
Nearly 50 years have elapsed sinceI I first met Amy and George in Pretoria. My husband, Ron and I loved visiting - they were such marvellous hosts. But it was more than that: they were genuine friends, ever ready to help. They exuded warmth and kindness.
When I went to the Far East way back in 1962, Amy arranged for her family in Singapore to look after me. What a wonderful time I spent with them. I went on to Hong Kong and there was another friend waiting to show me around. Nothing was too much trouble for Amy. (George's cooking, of course, lives on in my memory forever!)
I am ever grateful to you, Ken, for bringing your mom "home" in February and giving me the opportunity of spending a few hours with her. She looked so good I believed she would live forever, as she will in my heart and mind. I am so glad she enjoyed the big family reunion recently. What a special blessing for the family.
My deepest sympathy to you all. With you I cherish the memory of a dear and loyal friend.You are in my prayers.
Thank you, Shirley, for a beautiful description of her last journey. I felt I had been there with you.
Love
Winnie

To My Family,
In this time I am sure you are feeling all the love that has been
earned by Auntie Amy over her life. I cannot express in words or
action how much she will be missed or how sad I am for this loss.
Over the past few days I have been drawn to remembering her warming
laugh and uplifting smile. It is these things that I hope continue to carry you today, fill your hearts, and allow us to all be that much closer.
Her brilliance and influence on us all can be seen and will continue
to be seen in the family around her today. My deepest condolences is what I wanted to offer today but please know if there is anything else that may help you during this time do not hesitate.

With love,
Derek Luksun

Condolences

Dear Ken,

My heart felt sorrow to hear that your mom has taken leave of this world. Please accept our condolences to your family.
As my mother had always been very close to her and she has always cared for me in my childhood and took an interest in my well being in my days when I attended Pretoria Chinese School, memories of your mom will live forever in my heart.

Love to you all,
Kai and family.

I HAVE NOT GONE

You think I've gone, that I am dead
and life has lost its will
but look around, I am right here
living with you still.
I watch your tears, I feel your pain
I see the things you do
I weep as well, each time you cry
My soul, it lives with you.

It gives such joy to hear you laugh
and do the things you do
and when you smile o'er bygone days
I smile right with you too.
For we're still one, just you and me,
one mind, one soul, one being
walking forward into life,
though only you are seen.

And in the stillness of the night
when the pain it reall starts
stretch out a little with your mind
and draw me to your heart
for I am always right in there,
always by your side
For you have been
all my life's days,
My joy, My Love, My Pride.

Dear Ken, Jennifer, Shirley, Go and families,

Don't think of her as gone away-
Her journey has just begun
Life holds many facets
The Earth is only one
Just think of her as resting
From the sorrows and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days and years
Think how she must be wishing
That we could know today
How nothing but our sadness can really pass away
And think of her as living
In the hearts of those she touched
For nothing loved is ever lost-
And she was loved so much.

Dennis, Lucy and family.

Dear Amy YeeGar

May the choirs of angels come to greet you,
May they speed you to Paradise.
May the Lord enfold you in his mercy,
May you find eternal life.

Safe in the arms of Jesus
Safe on His gentle breast,
There by His love o’er shadowed,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.
