Tribute to Mr Quah.

This will be an entry for Mt Quah.

I duno how old is he, but i guess he have devoted majority of his life to education. To St Anthony's Convent.

News of his death really cums as a surprise. I dun understand how can a P.E. teacher as healthy as him will lose his life to aniting. He moved on yesterday, 2nd August 2004. I don't knw how old is he, but definately not a young chap animore.. Alot of ex-sacians turn up at his wake yesterdae. and i believe more will turn up the following 4 days as the news spread.

Mr Quah, my memory of him brings mi back to the old SAC at Middle Road. Back thn when we have the century old building, and haf to share the canteen with the secondary school(i was still a primay one student back in 1990). In the middle of out canteen was the tennis court. and tat was his prized tennis sch team training ground. the gers will be training, with him monitoring thm, correctin heir moves. he was alwaes a strict teacher, so students alwaes live in fear ard him. But deep dwn, everione knows even thou he pose out a strict and nasty front, but deep dwn he cares for everi student in his care.

He is the one teacher that everi SAC ger will ask whn meet together. Even whn i go over to huishan's hse, her sis(who is about 13 years my senior) will ask mi how is Mr Quah, is he still teaching in SAc and stuff liek tat.. He has became a symbol of SAC in everi sacian. Even for those that were not directly under his care and all.

Looking at him yest, lying in the coffin.. bring tears to my eye. but I hold on my tears, as his a catholic. I believed he haf entered God's embrace, and haf moved onto the nxt step of his life. But i reallie feel so sad knowing his existance on earth is gone. he has lost majority of his hair, and wat remain is just a few wismp of white hair.. his face looks so pale, so old. Its reallie different frm wat it is 5 years ago, frm wat i last seen him.

So this will be the last tribute to Mr Quah.
