Dear Friends and Schoolmates of James Tong,
To remember and honour James Tong, we contacted Mr. Warren Chung, Principal of Wah Yan Kowloon about setting up a one-time scholarship in the name of James. We sent a public announcement to you in early November 2020 about the at Wah Yan College, Kowloon. Contributions were to be sent to Wah Yan Kowloon directly, which would be used as one-time scholarships awarded to worthy students who demonstrated academic achievement as well as resilience to hardship.
We are pleased to report that Wah Yan Kowloon collected a total of HK$40,025 by January of 2021. After carefully reviewing the applications, Mr. Chung, the school principal, and his team decided to award a scholarship in the sum of HK$7,000 to each of the six students, selected from each level of the school, that is, Form One to Form Six.

We received the sad news from Dermot’s family that he passed away peacefully on January 20 in Toronto. The funeral service and arrangements had been taken care of already by the family.
Dermot is remembered as a key member of his class year and a dedicated supporter of all activities organized by the alumni association, even with his declining health in recent years. His contributions to the association in the early formation years are well respected. He will be dearly missed in the whole Wah Yan community.

Class reunions are important activities in alumni associations like WYKAAO. Under the current pandemic, it is not feasible to hold physical reunions practically anywhere in the world now. If you are interested in organizing such activities over internet, do let us know and we will try our best to support them, e.g. by providing a platform to conduct the virtual reunions.
For programs on virtual class reunions, a quick search on internet will return results on a number of useful tips and ideas.

我不認識余理謙神父（Fr. James Hurley)，只從別人口中聽到過他的名字。報章近日報道他的死訊，我才從他的作品丶訪問和別人的敍述中認識他，驚覺香港曾經有一位這麼關心學生丶青年人丶工人丶基層人士丶人權和民主，一生奉獻香港的先知性人物。
