I rushed back to Hong Kong to attend the funeral of my brother, Willie Chan. But just as I arrived, I received another sad and heartbreaking news. Mona Fong Yat Wah, Lady Shaw, my ‘Fong Jie’…passed away…. She and Run Run Shaw have watched me grow from an absolute nobody to a person that people became to know. We’ve known each other for so many decades. She’s a close friend and someone I highly respect. I last saw her in March while I was in Hong Kong, and we said that we’d have a party next time I’m in town. I’d never thought that that day was the last day I’d ever see her…. A lot of people don’t realize that saying ‘goodbye’ today might be the last goodbye ever! You might not get a chance to say it again. 

Saying goodbye to my two close friends tonight has been tough. Words cannot describe how I feel at the moment. Why is it that we only truly understand how to cherish people after they’re gone? My dearest Fong Jie, Rest In Peace. My dearest brother, Rest In Peace. You’re always in my heart. 

 

今天趕回香港來送兄弟陳自強,然而剛剛到步,就聽到另一個噩耗,方逸華,我的方姐也走了….她和邵先生一路看著我從默默無聞到被人認識,是幾十年的長輩和朋友,今年三月在香港見面時,還說下次要找機會敘舊,沒想到那天一別,就是永別了…很多人都是這樣,一聲再見之後,可能是再也沒機會見到了…今晚連續送別兩位老友,心情很沈重,為什麼人總是要等到這樣的時刻才更懂得珍惜?….我的方姐,走好。我的兄弟,走好。我永遠懷念你們。
