Lunch with Pauline and Fred Cheng in Toronto

January 12, 2008 – Mini Reunion in Toronto, Canada - Pauline Wong Wai Lai wrote this from Calgary, Alberta:

It was at the spur of a moment that Fred and I booked our tickets to fly to Toronto. Although our primary goal was to visit an ailing friend, we had been equally looking forward to revisit our BHJS classmates from 1967.

With May’s appealing abilities, we were able to join her, Cheung Kwok Ying, Stephen Lau, Fidelia (Stephen’s wife), Chui Tak Shing and Lau Yuk Hing for a delicious lunch. We were once welcome with warm reception. It was nice to see everyone again especially just shortly after our encounter in last August. It was also nice to see Chui Tak Shing for the first time since we were in the same class in 1966. Lucky him, his look hasn’t changed much.

Fred and I had a wonderful visit with the group. We chatted and joked just like old friends although I was never in the same class with most of them. After all we once shared our youthful past together, and it was a great joy to be able to sit together to have great conversation after more than four decades. The reunion we had in last summer has definitely brought us even closer together. I hope we will be able to see one another more in future.

The North America BHJS Alumni kicked off the new year with a wonderful gathering in Cerritos, California. This was to welcome May Ho and her daughter Christie who won the People's Choice Award - the Sole representative of Canada. Congratulations, Christie. Many of us were seeing each other for the first time in 40 years. We sang our School Hymn to reminisce our Morning Assembly and recited our 40th reunion poem. It was hilarious and awesome. We laughed a lot. May brought us Canada Alumni directories and we thank her for that. We were very happy to see Wendy again. Thank you Wendy, for sharing the latest development in cord-blood storage and stemcell research. This great luncheon lasted for 4 hours and we all voted to have more gatherings this year. May, we truly enjoyed your friendship. Wishing you a great AGM in March.
