Over 55 ahpeks & ahpohs got2gather again over the
weekend. Positive side, we managed to spend over 4 hours of talking
cock & bulls to last the rest of our lifetime again. Somehow we
managed to get hold of Casper Oh Hock Sun after 55 years of lost
contact. And mind you, many are from K,.L, some from Singapore and 2
from Hong Kong.... and yet these diehards make it a point to be here.
However, along the way we have lost 4
of our classmates - Lau Tak Futt,
Robert Ong Bok Kooi, Eoh Hook Kim & Lim Chee Boon. A minute of
silence was observed to mark their absence.
And..... those still unable to make it
this time due to their unforeseen
circumstances, mainly medical and other family commitment, we hope to
see you just for a few hours the next time around .... next year around
the same time and place for the annual mini get2gather.
Everyone walking in had theIr
ears scanning for a familar voice (cos the physical side can play havoc
to
the
eyes). Of course Huggy Bear was there with outstretched arms for the
girls.
There was then a short self
intro by Casper Oh Hock Sun & Tin Swee Kheng to refresh the others
memory of them, a slide show of the past year was shown with the climax
PFS Boleh, with the 2 Ahpeks who became fathers recently whilst the
rest were promoted to Datuk
& Nenek.
Of course we had another of our
classmates, Gan Khai Choon
who was also awarded a Datukship recently by the Penang Governor.
.
Dinner was served... or rather you get your own dinner....buffet style.
After dinner, the reps from each class were invited to do the cake
cutting ceremony. The cake was donated by Khai Choon.
Harris on behalf of all then
thanked the co ordinators Eng Soon, Soon
Keat, Chong Hye, Khai Choon & Cheng Woh for bringing us together
every 5 years.
Soon Keat followed up and waved
his magic wand to call for money. After
reaching a target he put his hand up again to stop the collection. He
then topped up the rest of the overall bill. TQ Khai Choon & Soon
Keat.
