Class 1962
Dear all,
To those of you who may not have been following events too closely regarding the passing of our beloved classmate Chris Liang Kit RIP on 20 Feb 2017 in Las Vegas, there was a Memorial Service organised by the Liang family on Sat March 4th 2017 at 1pm at The Chapel inside All Saints Mausoleum, Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery, 1500 Mission Rd.,Colma, CA 94014.
On behalf of WYK62's worldwide, six of our friends from North California formed a delegation, attended the Memorial Service, presented our Sympathy Card, signed the Guest Book, paid our collective respects to Chris Liang and offered our collective condolences to the family. (see photos taken at the event attached).
Please put all of our hands together to offer a WYK62 worldwide round of applause to these 6 classmates - namely Bob Shen, Patrick Hsu, Peter Sien, Steven Kong, Philip Chai and Joseph Wai - for a job well done on all our behalf. Most grateful and much appreciated. (I have also attached a summary of emails exchanged on the subject with my own expression of gratitude to our helpful 6).
In case you are wondering why there are 5 ex Shied Magazine class photos attached also, they are to do with Chris Liang's friends Victor Ling and Peter Lee who both happened to be WYKers as well.
Here's what I found :-
1) WYK62 Victor Ling - He started as a WYK61 and repeated F.2 because I found him in F.2D under Fr. Doody in 1958 (attached pages 109/110) and then in F.2B again in 1959 (attached page 109 - but noted on bottom of photo in caption as absent). His Chinese name is 林德芬.
2) WYK59 Peter Lee - I found him on attached 1959 pages 97 & 98 in F.5B under Fr Finneran. His names is Lee Kwang Tsong 李光聰.
O?nce again, from all of us, thank you Joe, Peter, Bob, Patrick, Philip and Steve. Great job !!!
Take care all & have a nice week,
Alex

Dear all,
A long awaited for WYK62 BD Party cum Dec Gathering happened most joyously last Thurs 8th Dec at Happy Valley's Moon Koon Restaurant, an excellent venue arranged through the kind and able assistance of Michael who as usual not only supplied the most tasteful free-flowing wines, selected the delicious dishes on the Menu plus last but not least, supplied the fabulous Birthday Cake ! Huge BD Cards for our 4 Birthday boys were, as usual sponsored & pre-signed by David Koo (absent with apologies). A big thank you to both from all of us !
As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words so at this point, I will just let the photos tell their own story.
On behalf of all of us WYK62's in Hong Kong, here's wishing you, your families and loved ones
a most joyful, warm and Merry Christmas and a very Prosperous and Successful New Year !!!
Take care, good health & God bless,
Alex

A mini 62 group gets together in Toronto celebrating Christmas. We all wish you and your family a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Dear all,
After WYK62 HK's customary Summer break, activities resumed with a BANG with what can only be called our Autumn Extravaganza - and indeed it was !
The event is a continuation of our now so very popular BD Party theme - this time to celebrate Birthdays of Michael Leung, Yvonne Poon and young Ray Cheung.
One mention of Michael saw the immediate volunteering of sponsorship of this Sep event by David Koo - who although not able to join us this year so far, have nevertheless always been with us in the form of the very appreciated HUGE BD Cards, sponsored and pre-signed by him for past BD Parties this year.
I think this write up can almost stop right here because with the very excellent venue of The Dynasty Club - how can anything be less than top quality under the generous sponsorship and excellent direction of our gracious host David Koo. Therefore, the result was a marvellous evening's enjoyment as befitting the celebration of our very generous and long-standing founding member of WYK62, Michael Leung.
The event, as it turned out, expressed to the full our sincere and heartfelt gratitude & appreciation of all that Michael has done for our group, his hospitality, sponsorship and generous support of every event - not to mention his routine contribution of wines and BD cakes etc.
well, let's ALL take our hats off to the GIANTs of WYK62 - MIchael and David - 3 Cheers, Bravo WELL DONE AND THANK YOU BOTH VERY MUCH INDEED !!!
I am afraid the photos - all 48 of them - only provided a glimpse of the joyfulness of the actual Extravaganza !!!
Happy viewing !!!
God bless you all,
Alex
P.S. The next one will be on Thurs 8th Dec when Raymond Lau and Patrick Hsu will be in town with their respective spouses. We shall then celebrate the Birthdays of Patrick Hus, Stephen Lee, Desmond Lee and David Lee. You can be sure it will be another one to remember as it will be sponsored by Michael !
