Grandmaster Wong,

That's magnificent. It is so great that you have helped the Chan Family regain dignity and respect. The efforts you have put forth in researching the three-lineage for so many years is truly remarkable. Then to unearth the hidden treasure of Chan Sun Chiu and his family, bringing them out into the world for all of us to learn about is fantastic. Grandmaster, it is truly an honor knowing you. Observing that birthday party for Keeper Chan, seeing his reactions and it seemed that there was a great weight lifted from him, or perhaps the realization that any burden could be shared with those who now knew about him and his family. It was during that time that it became apparent to me that there was something truly special going on though it was not quite clear to me at that time. I recall talking with you briefly about it as we were about to board the buses back to Hong Kong, when you gave me the honor of helping you put the picture book together. it is funny how life takes on these wonderful adventures and discoveries. I consider myself very fortunate to have been just a very small part of helping to make them happy. If there is anything i can assist with, please feel free to call on me to do so.
