Found two classmates from North America

Search for CS Shum

Irene Ko sent an email to the committee members on 23^rd Nov 2012:

This morning, I recd a long distance call again. It was from Vancouver CS Shum.
I feel great. After a few months’ try, CS replied eventually.
He is married with a daughter who just got her second degree. He is retired already. He plans to visit to Hong Kong around Dec 11-Jan 13.

Thanks to Irene for her best effort to search for CS Shum. She used an old name card and called CS’s former company. A lady said she would forward Irene’s message to him. Irene waited for three months and got no response from CS or that lady. Irene called the lady again and reported the case to us on the committee meeting on 21^st Nov 2012. CS called Irene two days after the meeting.

We were excited to reunite with CS. He made a special trip to Hong Kong to visit us and we had a welcome dinner with him on 16^th Dec 2012.

Reunite with TK Wong

There is a little story of how TK Wong found us. His sister at Minneapolis searched for info and pictures for her old address in Hong Kong from the Internet. She clicked onto our Google advertisement and visited our website:

She then called TK for him to visit our website. TK called Irene Ko and connected with us. It is really wonderful and we are proud to have TK reunite with us.

TK resides in New York and has just suffered from Hurricane Sandy. In fact, Sandy severely affected Long Island, NYC, and NJ, causing a lot of flooding and power failure.  He survived the hurricane but was unable to get to work in downtown Manhattan for the entire week due to the impact.  His house on Long Island is fine with the exception that a couple of roof shingles were blown off by the high winds.  This hurricane caused a lot of problems to many people in the Tri State area (NY/NJ/CT) but was really nothing to him if he compared it with the 911 attack because he was working at the No. 2 tower on a high floor at that time.

He migrated to the USA in late November 1980 and stayed with his family in Minneapolis for about 2 years.  In April 1982, he left for New York and has been residing on Long Island since then. He is married with 1 son.

TK was very eager to meet his old classmates but could not visit us immediately due to his heavy workload. We finally will visit us in May and we will have a welcome dinner for him on 15th May 2013.
