Peter Chang (61) writes, "I attended a special event to pay tribute to a Wah Yan Alumnus Dr. Tak Mak, held on October 15, 2015, hosted by The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation and University Health Network. The event was called "CHAMPION OF HOPE - A TRUBUTE TO DR. TAK MAK AND THE RESEARCH AT THE PRINCESS MARGARET".

我是F.1 入華仁的,由中文小學轉到英文中學頭幾個月都是和字典打交道。同學們有不同的背景,有一些給人印象特別深刻的如外號“大聲公”的馮禮和。明顯他的性格不是內斂那種。用今天的術語就是“有事大聲說出來”。在課堂上有時會提出和老師不同或相反的意見。記憶中在何鎮源和劉繼業老師的班上比較多。
他是典型好學生,記得F.3一次到長洲旅行,在渡輪上他拿出一本書來看,我瞄一下原來是“詩經”讀本。並同我說其中一篇“碩鼠”,對那時的我是太“古“了。又有一天他帶了一個大箱子來學校,原來是個古琴。他正在跟師父在課外學琴。可知他的國文根底不錯。那時在大會堂有陳湛銓的國學講座我知道他也常去聽的。

Peter sent us the follwoing poem today about a tree he planted in his backyard in Canada -
An article on John Loo ('67) appears in January 2, 2016 issue of the 明報周刊. He wants it posted so that we can know him more. Please click any photo to read the whole article.
The tree is on Wylie Road, inside "Wah Yan College Kowloon". You can search Google Map for a satellite shot of the vicinity. Then when you find "Wah Yan College Kowloon"you will be able to see a swimming pool. This tree is near the swimming pool but it grows stretching out of the school. Turn to Google Map street-view now, and you can move along Wylie Road and see that the tree has a singular grandeur, dwarfing all the passers-by or the passing cars.
John is in orange tee shirt in the colour photo. The black and white photo shows John active in the CLC back in school days.
