My beloved grandmother, You will be greatly missed. You have imparted so much knowledge through your loving, caring, and generous heart. Your life was devoted to your children and their families. You never passed judgment and always saw the good in everyone. One of my fondest memories is when you cared for Phoenix during her toddler years. She sat in your recliner while you sat on her red plastic toddler chair, feeding her congee. Thank you for all your wise words. Every moment you spent with her, teaching her valuable lessons and showering her with love, is priceless. Your presence brought a sense of warmth and comfort to our lives, and your absence will be deeply felt. Your wisdom and kindness will continue to guide us, and we will always hold you close in our hearts. Rest in peace, dear grandmother, knowing that your legacy of love and compassion lives on in all of us.

I will always remember how I hid behind her to escape a well-earned spanking when I was very little. We knew her as Tse-ma and thought she was our aunt since she was so close to our mom. May they both be watching down on us together forever. Wai-Yuen (Mari)
