Weng Intel Portland

10-Oct-2023

This US trip, I made a few new American friends. There are brother weng co-colleagues.
They were so thoughtful that invite my family to Intel RB1 head office the next day of the memorial ceremony .  They bought us into the office and show us to Weng's working desk and patiently explained to us about his job role.  They also bought us into the meeting room to give us a very surprise tribute to Weng.  Most of the weng Co colleague all came forward and some ex boss, VP and superior join us in the zoom conference.   We felt so overwhelmed and touched.  This is one of the biggest closure that we finally know what my brother did in the past of 25 years service in the same company.  What I learned that my brother was so humble that his colleague don't even know he was one Singapore National Team of Dragon boat paddler🚣‍♀️
Brother Weng  I am truelly proud of you

Brother Weng memorial ceremony

This is the day, one rainy day.
By 2+ we came to the funeral service home at 4815SW Jamieton Road.
8 of us start to mak all setup & necessary arrangement .
The hall is rather small and barely can sit in 30 people. 
Today we finally meet our beloved brother weng and it is really heartbreaking. 
We were overwhelmed to see so many guests turn out , many colleagues from Intel & Nike, brothers & sisters from church and good friends. 
A simple & humble ceremony and fairwell to Weng.

Portland US 7-Sep-2023

After 14 hour flight to San Fransico  and 4 hour transit waiting at the airport.  Another short domestic flight of 1.5 hour we finally touched down Portland US.
This is my second visit to Portland after 23 year.  If I remember correctly, my fist visit is year 2000 flying alone to find my brother.

LO KIT WENG

29-9-2033 Friday

My dear brother Kit Weng was called home  to be with the Lord yesterday morning. He had been unwell for the last couple of days. I would like to think that he  passed on peacefully in his sleep. My siblings & I will be flying over in about a week as the body will be kept for 2 weeks. We just want to be with our sister-in-law & nephew  during this difficult period. Our comfort is that he is now in the presence of the  Lord with no more suffering & pain. We will miss his endless daily devotion texts & his love for us. We last saw him in 2021 when he spent 2 full months with us. He fell ill in Sept 2022 & in fact he just resigned on 11Sept23. He even had plans to come back in 2024. I trust that God has a plan & purpose for his suddden departure. He will be 60 next August. We are still reeling from  shock & pain. Thank you for your concern & prayers
