Joan Chan Shu Fang
On Wednesday as I walked past the old CAC Room, I paused to glance at an article pinned on the crowded noticeboard, about Joan Chan. It was odd, that I had never noticed it before. Someone, probably the person who maintains the board, had written "Never Give Up..." above the title.
Today I leafed to the Home section of the newspaper to see that Joan had died in her sleep on Wednesday night, the eve of Ascension Day.
Visit her old blog here and the one set up by her friends here.
And, just as for Fr. Brygier, pray for the repose of her soul.
Perhaps it has something to do with my classmate's post about love which I read and responded to earlier today, but here's the hymn that's playing in my mind.. and somehow it fits this post.
Strong and Constant
I will be Yahweh who walks with you
You will be always within My hand
Take your heart and give it all to Me
Strong and constant is My love
Strong and constant is My love
Should you wander far away from Me
I will search for you in every land
Should you call then you will truly know
Strong and constant is My love
Strong and constant is My love
When you know sorrow within your life
I will come
I will embrace your heart
Through your pain you will discover Me
Strong and constant is My love
Strong and constant is My love

Treasure life.
