Edmund Ho (64) of Vancourver writes,"I arrived Hong Kong yesterday and today I visited Mr. Tam in QEH. He looked weak and today he had fever, but he enjoyed my visit. Mrs. Tam was there as well.
I showed him a picture of our outdoor activity in Art Club in 1962, and immediately he called most of the students on the photo by name. He has an impressive memory. He also reviewed my very recent pastel painting. He looked at it for a long while, then he said to me,'You have come a long way in art. You are an in-born artist and you have attained a professional standard.'
His book《Examples of Understanding Hong Kong Art through Culture》is published and will be officially released this Saturday. He signed one book for me."
Dominic Chan (64) of Toronto writes,"Tam sir, many thanks in advance for your book. How are you lately? Feeling better now. Last year I picked up drawing again. This time I tried out acrylic on canvas and was planning to draw one for each of the places I visited in the past. See what you think..."

2013年02月05日 蘋果日報 副刊 (文章提及蘇文擢老師和薛偉祥老師)
也斯喪禮,小思老師也來了,靈前致祭,肅穆哀傷,壇上悼念,情摯意真,我的眼睛有點兒潤濕了。昔日跟也斯同窗的一幕幕,清晰地盤旋眼前。半個世紀,往事豈是如煙。我們唸的是「端正」小學,正校在灣仔,分校北角,有兩處校舍,一在北角道,另一在春秧街。
WYKPSA organized a tour to Double Heaven Geo-area (香港地質公園——印洲塘景區) on January 20, 2013 and Mr. Keung Yiu Ming (75, Geography Panel Chairman) was the tour guide. Mr. Francis So, retired Geography Panel Chairman, enjoyed the tour. He writes, “… It makes me feel young as if I was one of the teaching staff leading boys on a field trip years ago before my retirement. Thank you for the invitation of WYKPSA.”

一個喜訊! 本月九日下午四時,到依利莎伯醫院探譚SIR。午睡剛起來,看來面色透紅,精神亦好。交談近況,又以其手機顯示在院中三餐,輕鬆地解釋餐前餐後的錄影. . . 食量也不少。同聲說吃得是福。師母謂譚SIR今番入院是清清肺中積水,應無大問題。交談間還主動要與我們合照。附上照片至希代發給同學們。
