Class 1967
我是F.1 入華仁的,由中文小學轉到英文中學頭幾個月都是和字典打交道。同學們有不同的背景,有一些給人印象特別深刻的如外號“大聲公”的馮禮和。明顯他的性格不是內斂那種。用今天的術語就是“有事大聲說出來”。在課堂上有時會提出和老師不同或相反的意見。記憶中在何鎮源和劉繼業老師的班上比較多。
他是典型好學生,記得F.3一次到長洲旅行,在渡輪上他拿出一本書來看,我瞄一下原來是“詩經”讀本。並同我說其中一篇“碩鼠”,對那時的我是太“古“了。又有一天他帶了一個大箱子來學校,原來是個古琴。他正在跟師父在課外學琴。可知他的國文根底不錯。那時在大會堂有陳湛銓的國學講座我知道他也常去聽的。
Mike Fung Lai-Wo has passed away on November 14, 2015 in Shanghai due to liver cancer. He passed away less than two weeks after the initial diagnosis due to sudden tumour rupture and bleeding. May he rest in peace!
An article on John Loo ('67) appears in January 2, 2016 issue of the 明報周刊. He wants it posted so that we can know him more. Please click any photo to read the whole article.
The tree is on Wylie Road, inside "Wah Yan College Kowloon". You can search Google Map for a satellite shot of the vicinity. Then when you find "Wah Yan College Kowloon"you will be able to see a swimming pool. This tree is near the swimming pool but it grows stretching out of the school. Turn to Google Map street-view now, and you can move along Wylie Road and see that the tree has a singular grandeur, dwarfing all the passers-by or the passing cars.

聚散隨緣 by Edward Chung ('67)
寒來暑往,台北早晚有涼意,又快是中秋時節!
記得去年底,與曾亮兄在台灣中壢市相約今年暑假再聚於多倫多。經建夏兄鼎力襄助, 果然得與何鎮源老師及華仁(1967)十多位老同學在六月底暢飲一堂!最難得是與建夏兄是闊別四十七年後重逢,及偉屏,沛齡二兄充當導遊,陪伴焯亨兄與我暢遊加東的渥太華,蒙特利爾與魁北克,特此致上衷心感謝!
逗留多市七天期間,又能與啟亮,耀才,袖岳三位仁兄多次聚會,或午餐晚飯,或下午茶宵夜,無不上天下地,高談闊論,盡興而散!舍弟此次與我同遊,住宿於小學老同學浩淳兄家四晚,並能與普愛學校老師校友點心午餐,實一快事!短短一周時間,還能與大學同窗大光兄及去年旅遊山東認識的新朋友孫先生夫婦聚舊,亦屬難得!
返台月餘,慶功兄從對岸來電話問好,我與上海的禮和兄也有通過消息。本月初曾亮兄再次出差中壢完畢,與我飲茶於台北京站傳鮮樓,指出歷年來只有十月與十一月兩個月未曾到過台北,與本地最佳天氣失諸交臂矣!
今年初幾位親友與愛犬相繼離世,不勝唏噓!難得暑假時能在美加與家人,老同學,新朋友重逢敘舊,確實領悟“聚散隨緣”及“海內存知己,天涯若比鄰”的境界!

Faces,Places: Toronto 2015 reunion
Since leaving WYK in 1967 a few souls seemed to have disappeared into thin air. There have been no reported sighting by radar or sonar. So when I heard that some might show up at the mini reunion at Toronto I was eager to see what they have morphed into.
The top target is Tsang Leung, our wonder boy. What do you know he has not changed that much. The quiet and smiling kid has become the laughing and talking Pro(fessor). I had a peep at his resume. He even mentions graduating from WYK in Hong Kong. Relax Mr. Ho, he remembers (us).

Thanks for the companionship
Road tips and bullshits
The familiar refreshed the unfamiliar refreshing
Things I have done and said
Has long escaped me
And lived in your memory
You light up my life
You fill up my life
