Dear Mommy, thank you for the love you have given us in this life. You are so selfless and never ask for anything in return. May your soul rest happily in heaven from now on. We will always remember you and love you.

先父常提到大姑生命中許多鼓舞人心的故事。自從大姑的父親去世後，作為 16 歲的長女，她一直是這個六口之家的主要經濟支柱.我無法想像在當時的農業社會裡,一位弱女子自己生存已屬不易,更何況是撫養整個家庭。除此之外，長達八年的中日戰爭、中國內戰、戰後台灣的政治經濟的不穩定，在在讓大姑和家人的生活更加艱困。她犧牲了自己的青春，拼命賺錢存錢，終於在三十多歲時(當時大叔叔和一位姑姑已結婚),於台北郊區買了一棟四層樓透天厝,足以讓整個大家庭安頓下來之外,一樓可當店面出租,當祖母的生活費.這才放心與姑丈結婚並移民美國.這棟房子後來輾轉被換成台北市的三棟公寓, 以現在的價值,應有相當大的數額,而她無怨無悔地一毛錢也沒有留給自己.
1988年底先生唸完書後,我們全家搬到北加州就業,落腳San Ramon,距離大姑住的Alameda 僅有30分鐘的車程,因此更有機會與大姑交流,進一步了解她的另一面.當時大姑丈已去世六年,她已經學會了如何獨居自處.上班之餘或退休後,總是打扮得漂漂亮亮,積極參與社區中心的舞蹈,BINGO遊戲等團體活動,直到幾年前跌倒之後才停止.大姑跟先父一樣,因無財力升學,卻一輩子好學,讀盡圖書館日文書刊,吸收許多歷史與健康知識.大姑的好學,獨立,勤勞,毅力,對家人的愛心,對生命的熱愛,是我們永遠的典範.
Dear mommy, we love you deeply, and bear grief of your decease. You've taken care of us for your whole life selflessly. We will remember you and hold you in our hearts for good.
You have generously brought joy and love to people around you in this life. We truly believe that you are also embraced with joy and love and rest in peace in heaven now. Dear mommy, adieu. We love you wholeheartedly.
Your nephew, Shu-hao, on behalf of your niece Xing-yi, and your most beloved sister, Li-yu
