Ralph on Mak Hong Shing



We had a gathering on 3 Nov 2012. But this time is a mourning gathering to give our respect to Mak Hong Shing who passed away. Eight of us is available to attend and represent the hearts of our TPS64. We have friendship of  about 50 years.

As we can remember, Mak Hong Shing lived in Taipo Kou, and his grandfather brought him to school everyday. He has been invited some of us to his house in our primary school days, and we can remember lots of funs in the playfield under the cotton tree.

He married with Sylvia and gave birth to a daughter Sheila, now studying in Australia. Sylvia said that Mak hong Shing suffered from intestine cancer, with pain but not too serious pain, and thought it was some kind of  hemorrhoids. When lastly found the cancer, it came quick. While they were chattering one day, and Mak Hong Shing just passed away, with his family by his side, and without suffering from the usual pain in cancer. Our thinking of the next gathering close to his house is too late. He has gone and we can only hope he will rest in peace.

Among the eight of us present, four have retired, and Kai Ming now has time to undergo his interests, and will be holding an exhibition of his photo shots in the coming days. We then expect Kai Ming to help coordinate more on our classmates as well.
