I first met George and Kathleen in 1967 when they arrived on Oahu to become members of the Western Union “family” working at NAVCOMSTA Oahu supporting a DoD communications system. Working with George, II soon realized that he was a highly intelligent, sincere person. My late wife, Joyce, hit it off quickly with Kathleen. We had no children and George and Kathleen kindly shared Rodney, Colin, Stacey and Laura with us. (Rhonda and Gregory were born after we returned to the mainland). Years later we returned to Oahu to attend Laura and Mitch’s wedding. My second wife, Debby, recalls how warmly she was received by George and Kathleen. They were people of great faith and kindness, and we will hold their memories in our hearts as a blessing from God.

in honor of George.

George and Kathleen have been our closest friends since we moved to Hawaii in 1995. They welcomed us as Jamaican born Hakka Chinese when we arrived. It was our tradition to celebrate the lunar new year (Chinese New Year) at a local Chinese restaurant. We fondly remember George and Kathleen heating up the dance floor with their ballroom skills at our daughter’s wedding. God speed our dear friend. We will miss you at the Worldwide Hakka conference in Toronto.

We moved to Hawaii from Toronto Canada in 1995. As a fellow Jamaican born Chinese Kathleen Chong, George’s wife came to Sand Island snack shop to welcome us to Hawaii. She invited us to her home to meet her family. In the spirit of Aloha, every year we would get together with George, kathleen and Gregory to celebrate the lunar Chinese New Year. George’s favorite dish was honey walnut shrimp. My favorite memory of George was watching as he and Kathleen heated up the dance floor with their ballroom dancing. God’s speed our dear friend, He will raise you up on Eagle’s wings. You will be missed our Hakka friend.
Love Janice and Tenny Soon Fah
