Dear Friends and Alumni of WYK,
In Christian hope, I am informing you that our beloved Fr. Harold Naylor, S.J. has returned to our Lord for his eternal reward at 4:17 pm today (4/10).
Fr. Naylor was a Jesuit educator par excellence and one of the most endearing figures of Wah Yan College, Kowloon. He will also be remembered for his commitment in ecological education and Christian ecumenism.
Details on his funeral arrangement will be announced when available.
May Fr. Naylor intercede for us in his heavenly home!
(From Fr. Stephen Chow S.J.)

"兩位是方津生和湯偉民医生，他們兩位是father守護天使"
"Eva, wife of Dr. Vincent Tse, who is the head nurse at Elizabeth Hospital, visits every evening after work taking care of father."
"He still has good appetite, so Rose (Mrs Yuen) makes some fish dishes for him if she find something nice in market."
"He is teaching us how to face sickness and death. You learn courage, let go, trust, faith."
[8/1]:Rose and I have been with him every evening from 7:30pm till he sleeps by 8pm.
He is stable and is always in good spirit! He teaches us how to face sickness and death dignified and cheerful!
He is most alert around 11am, but usually long queue outside.
Sick in St. Paul's Hospital in Causeway Bay on Hong Kong Island, Fr. Deignan celebrated the Feast of St. Ignatius Loyola and the 59th Anniversary of his priestly ordination on 31st July 2018. A Skype video link was set up to let Fr. Deignan watch the celebration Mass held in the chapel of Wah Yan College in Kowloon and to let him interact with those who attended the dinner that followed.

Fr. Deignan updated us on his latest conditions. Click here to see the video.
Since last December, he has become weaker in terms of physical strength. But his mind is still sharp. He, as usual, writes letters every day. However, he tells me that it now takes him longer than before to write a letter. So he still has not answered all the cards and letters that he received during Christmas.
There is another reason why some of you do not receive a reply from him. After writing a letter, he will write the address, seal the envelope and put on the stamps all by himself. His hands are not as steady as beforeand we notice that sometimes, he omits some parts of the address. For obvious omissions, we can return the letter to him. So sometimes, his letters are returned to him with the reason that the address is incomplete.
I will pass on your greetings to Father Mallin.
With my best wishes for the year of the Dog,
William
