Father Mallin turned 101 years old on September 13, 2014.
Every year, Wong Hin-shing sends a birthday card to Father Mallin on behalf of Class of 61.
The hand-written reply from Father Mallin himself is amazing.
WYKAAO will once again participate in the Terry Fox Run this year (Sunday, Sept 14). The run site chosen is our favourite Markham-Unionville location, a major part of the route inside the Toogood Pond Park with breath-taking scenery (1km-route map, 5/10km-route map).
For a number of years, we have been proudly supporting The Terry Fox Foundation in its ongoing work to fund innovative and progressive cancer research programs. Please support our team by joining, or making a donation. Your kindness will impact the lives of so many people living with cancer.

Report from Edwin Law (HKWY75) after visiting Father Farren with Poon Sek Kwong:
"Fr Farren is staying in a nursing home specially built for Jesuits in a Jesuit community in Dublin about 20 minutes south of the city center (Trinity College). We took a taxi which only costs about 12 euros for 4 people. Taxi in Ireland charges 1 euro per extra head.
Hilary and his wife, Joan, of Chicago are in town to attend a wedding this weekend. A welcome dinner was held on Friday, September 05, in Richmond Hill. At dinner were Bill/Mariana Fok, Tony/Shirley Chiu, Victor Tong and Mr. Anthony Ho.
