Auntie May (as we all called her) was a very young 84.  I remember her most for her chuckle, as she found what we were all up to usually very amusing.  But she always looked after the many of us, even when we were too caught up with our own lives to stay in touch as we should have.

She was like a second mother to most of us nieces and nephews.  The first picture was taken a few years ago, in San Francisco at one of the many large-family celebrations.

What I miss most of all? The call: "So, how are you doing, ONdrys?" (as she liked to call me)" and then chuckling because she knew I was probably up to no good.

  She and Uncle Terry pretty much saved me at a very low point, gifting me with their 2nd car (a really fine one), because they knew mine was barely running and I was recovering from the Silicon Valley meltdown.  It meant a lot.  As did the regular calls, and the fine cooking, and the laughter. I hear it often, still, in my head, and I miss that I can't hear it better anymore.

The photos include the large Chin and Tong families.  And some friends.  I took photos at the end, so just was not able to catch enough of the family and somehow missed Lise, Debi's sister.  Uncle Terry did a great job with the family photo history as usual.
