Ah B (Eugene Chok) is in town with his son Dustin for a brief visit before flying down to Australia to spend Christmas with his Mom. Dai Bun (Lam Kwai Bun) is kind enough to be their official escort and limo driver most of the time. But in the evening of 21st December 2008, Nick Tsui takes Eugene to the Hong Kong Brands & Product Expo (工展會) at Victoria Park. The venue is only a short tram ride away from Eugene's hotel in Wanchai. Sampling exotic food and drinks seems to be the thing to do there and, as shown in the photograph, we find ourselves drinking up potent drinks offered by a Miss Expo (工展小姐), the young thing in funny costume. After visiting the Expo, we stroll down to North Point for dinner. Fish soup and vegetables are ordered to keep the menu light and healthy, the way Ah B likes it.

The next day, 22nd December, is get-together day with the Class 67 gang. The yum cha place in the photo is the Chinese Recreation Club in Tai Hang. Pictured seated L to R: Lam Chai, Mui Lam, Ball Chai, Law Wing Keung and Li Hoi Yuen; Standing: Nick Tsui, Chow Chai, Dai Bun, Ah Bill (Ball Chai's brother), Ah B and son Dustin. Eugene's brother Joe Joe is the cameraman. And the conversation, the good old days, of course.

Hi AlL:

I want to thank you again for the gathering in Toronto and the lovely dinner.  It was very special for me to see all of you in one room after over 40 long years.  May our friendship continue to grow as a result of this reconnection.  I also enjoyed meeting with Isabella and your respective spouses. Georgina and I used to attend the U of Alberta in the early '70s !!  I just wished to have more individual time with each of you to renew our friendship.  Hopefully we will have that opportunity again in September 2009 in Vancouver. 

Anyway, I will be discussing the suggested N. America Reunion with the Wah Yan '67ers in Vancouver to be held some time in september 2009.  Let me know your ideas and possible assistance from your end.  Francis White Shoe Boy, please forward me the name of the hotel.

Attached are the photos I took at the dinner.

Our webmaster Cecil Fung took time off to play a game of Ping Pong at the Disciplined Services Sports & Recreation Club in Causeway Bay with Mario Lee Mui Lam, a.k.a. King of All Sports. According to Mario, Cecil played an excellent game, considering his not having played for decades. We all know that Cecil was swimming champion during our Wah Yan days. However, his disclosure that he was also part of the school's Ping Pong Team admittedly came as a surprise that has yet to be verified by Peter Lam or their coach Atomic Dust.

You are not alone if you find Hong Kong's youngsters behaving rudely or holding a misguided sense of values in recent years. Rev. Fr. Deignan thought about that too and he decided to do something about it by setting up the Hong Kong International Institute of Educational Leadership (HKIIEL) to promote and develop basic human values.

Dear Nick,
You have done a wonderful job getting your classmates to support our V-Shows and I thank you and them for their very generous donations which have come in at such short notice. They are really helping our efforts to make young people and teachers more aware of the importance of basic human values in our relationships. I am sure the V-Shows will bear fruit, especially in the joyful participation of the children and parents.

With prayers and gratitude,
Alfred J. Deignan S.J.

Email messages from Ah Mou, Andrew Lau and Paul Chan were read out and that made us feel that they were right there with us.
Paul Eng, our guest of honour was awarded a Cup by Joe Lung for winning the ping pong tournament. That was no surprise to us because Paul is ranked 21 in Hawaii.

Where would we be without our loved ones? Persons of significance were present, not to keep a tight rein but to share and help celebrate our esprit de corps and friendship. Their tolerance of our tomfoolery, their patience with our neglect at this occasion and their stoic understanding of our unverbalized appreciation and love was deeply and truly appreciated.

What would an event like this be without the group photo as stipulated by Nick? So here it is on the left, the Boyz and Girlz of the 2006 Autumn Reunion. A total of 22 Boyz attended.
It is not that easy to figure out who came with whom. Some are obvious in the picture. For a complete list of names, email President for Life Nick.

Paul Eng Fook Ming. aka Paul Ng Fook Ming, better known to his friends as Ah Fook, brought his persons of significance to HK for root-finding and seeing friends from long ago. What would such a visit be without sharing of Dim Sum? Along with Dim Sum, of course, is tea sipping.Seen here in fine tea sipping form are:Standing l-r: Stephen Siu, Peter Lam, Edmund Cheung, Dick Lau, Nick Tsui

2006-07-03 saw Ah Mou and wife Carolyn and daughter Erin driving from New Jersey to visit old friends in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. After many hours on the road, the 繆 family arrived and found White Rabbit and Jenny at the Ambassador Restaurant. Sharing stories and good food were in order and a good time was had by all. There was no chopstick fighting or throwing of food, and civility ruled the day. Fun and fellowship was enjoyed and promises were made to do the same at the next earliest opportunity.

Later, Louis went drinking with more old friends. Being the designated non-drinker, White Rabbit, true to his name, had OJ. The others happily imbibed martinis and beers and got happier. Attitudes were adjusted with enthusiasm. Nick, our Prez 4 Life, was called in HK by the group, and was roused from bed at 10:30 am. Louis thanked Nick for his fantastic work in bringing us together and roundly shined his shoes.Seated l-r: Paul Chan Ka Bun, David Lok Kwok Kai, Stephen Leung Cheung Hung, Ah Mou 繆國禮, Remus Tsang Siu Lun

Obituary: Rev. Fr. Joseph Foley, S.J.

Please join us in a moment of silence to grieve the passing away of late Fr. Foley. Late Fr. Foley left this world at 11pm 4th September 2006 (Dublin time) in his nursing home in Dublin. This photograph is hardly a recent one but it is one image that many of us will always remember him by. You may all be comforted to learn that of late, many old boys have written to late Fr. Foley and a few even made the trip over especially to visit him. I am happy to report that all these made him extremely glad. One good way to measure a good teacher must be by how many old students take the trouble to visit him. From the gestures of Wahyanites, late Fr. Foley's relatives also got to learn how great a part of life Wah Yan had been to him and vice versa. They are all very proud of late Fr. Foley and were able to persoanlly sense the affection displayed by the locals a few years ago during their visit to HK. The funeral in Dublin was held on 7th September in the Jesuit Church Dublin. In the meantime, take stock of our fond memories for the kind man who came all the way from Ireland, who taugh us so much and made a difference in many of our lives. Enjoy the reassuring knowledge that Fr. Foley is now peacefully by God's side. The Requiem Mass for late Rev. Fr. J. Foley, S.J. will be held at the Cathedral, Caine Road, on 14th September, 2006 at 7:30p.m. Cardinal Zen will be the Chief Celebrant.

Nick Tsui 2006.09.05

Fr. Foley left this earth on September 04, 2006, at 11:00 pm Dublin time. Funeral mass will be held on September 7th in Dublin. Please go to http://www.wahyan-psa.org for updates. While his passing was not totally unexpected, I am experiencing a great sense of loss.I remember Fr. Foley. I first knew him as our Principal in Primary 5. He was our quintessential version of 007. With his slightly crooked smile, a glint of good-natured mischief in his eyes and a quiet self-confidence in each step, had he not received the calling of the Church, I could almost see him holding a double vodka martini in one hand, mesmerizing all the ladies at hand, and breaking the bank at baccarat. However, he became a spiritual man, a servant of God and mentor, teacher and friend to us all. He often joked with us and played along with us, all the while knowing that his “wings” are being tied into a knot behind his back. As you open the attached file, please read what Fr. Foley wrote to us some 39 years ago. We have been reunited by email and we are living the spirit of Wah Yan as Fr. Foley had hoped for.And now, he is peacefully at God’s side.

Cecil Fung 2006-09-05

This is indeed sad news to us all. I remember Fr. Foley fondly. He was my badminton partner and we won many games due to ... me. I especially remember the times when I didn't wear school designed uniform and was caught by Fr. Foley at the entrance. He wouldn't scold me per se, but would simply wring my ear and raise it a few inches so that I would get the message.He was a good-natured man with such handsome looks. Yes, he was very attractive, and actually better looking than 007. Though I don't know if he would sip martinis, but I am sure he was fond of the wine's of benediction.All kidding aside, I miss all my father and y'all.

I could remember how I loved to climb up and down the slopes of Wah Yan next to Stubbs Road, during lunch time. I enjoyed the excitement of hiding amidst the tall grass and the tranquility looking up the blue sky lying on grass. I was caught by Fr. Foley while I stuck my head out. He cautioned me, of course, but I think he did not really forbid me, as I kept this adventurous activity for quite some time. There are so much that we have gained from Wah Yan, particularly all the devoted and loving fathers.I could not remember when I last met Fr. Foley after I left Wah Yan. As circumstances went, I maintained good contact with Fr. Deignan. I count this one of greatest blessing from God.I was fortunate enough to have the chance to share some fine wine with Fr. Deignan in recent years. How I wish the same with Fr. Foley. May that be fulfulled some time in the arms of God.May the spirit of the Jesuit priests and Wah Yan long last and best wishes to you all.

Francis Lee Wan Tsi 2006-09-05

After leaving Wah Yan in 1968, the next time I contacted Fr. Foley was in preparation of the International Conference in Toronto in 2002. Although he could not attend due to his health, he sent us a photo and message. Since then, he'd send me a Christmas card every year with a few words in it.I'll treasure these as well as the everlasting memory of a great mentor and teacher.

It was the evening of Thursday, August 17, 2006, at the River Rock Casino Hotel in Richmond, BC, Canada. The all too familiar refrains of 'The House of the Rising Sun" wafted in the air, setting the mood. Our beloved Father Deignan, looking radiant as ever, tended to his flock of a bunch of 67 boys, emotional yet stoic, and 2 lovely ladies.

At the IC2006 Reception, a very youthful looking Mr. Yu, with more hair on his head and a smoother skin on his face, made a bunch of 67ers act and, more appropriately, feel their age. A picture of the moment is presented for rumination.

As the Group dashed off for some late night nosh, a spectacular chance encounter caught them posing with a mentor of memories past. Tight in body, with a thinning yet flowing silvery mane, he was none other than Mr. Fung Kam Sang, our Chinese History teacher, he of the deep permanent tan!

"I developed the interest to further study purely because I was influenced by Tao Man Kuen, one of my best friends in Wah Yan. He had two Master Degrees, so I thought I could do it too. Later, the more I studied, the more I felt I was really deficient in knowledge. So I kept going. I intend to do a PhD in History later on. However, I would like to take a little time off to enjoy life with my wife Dorothy and my family before I take up further studies," says Dr. James Yeung, the GM of Dragooair South East Asia.

"I would like to share my experience with young Wahyanites and would like to say that the pursuance of knowledge is never enough, and thus is never ending. As long as there is a will, there is a way. It's never too late to try!" he continued.
