Thank you Note by Julie & Mike

計劃不如變化，就像摩爾定律，livestream 功效有限，幾經周折，臨時決定全程以 Zoom 為主，幸好 Kevin 準備了大型電視螢幕等設備，告別儀式尚算順利，除了謝謝 Jeannie 的鼎力相助，她中了特獎矇到的好伴侶，三個好孩子，更要謝謝每一位寫過感言的長輩與親友，因為有了您們與你們，小胖最後雖然沒有剩餘一秒鐘可以講述母親的生平，大家長一生中最有人情味的點點滴滴已經含括在各位的回憶與感念中，又何必留給刀子口的小胖來畫蛇添足。

蓓蓓與小胖在此一鞠躬，謝謝四方八面射來的草箭，助小胖完成了一件不知從何處下筆的任務。看著這幀合照，小舅可邊哼歌、邊抒發情緒、小瑾陪著哼唄，大夥樂意就一起哼吧！

The way we were

Rest in Peace by Zachary

Mom, Your great grandson, Zachary, played this tune when we were up on the hill right before placing you next to Dad. I felt a strong connection at that moment. It must have brought tears and a shinny smile on your face too.

Enjoy your life in paradise! yours little chubby

Thank you Zachary!

Epilogue 小胖打小報告

During the short break, Barb mentioned she was surprised that Greg 史瑞格，showed a little bit nervous the 1st time he met my Mom. She also drew the conclusion that this is the ultimate test and the toughest part for any outsider to obtaining acceptance prior to entering 蕭家大門. As a matter of fact, in my younger days, I hosted parties frequently in Mom's Queendom. All my friends and girl friends, called my Mom Empress Wu (武), because of all their tongues and knees suddenly stiffened the 1st time I was introducing them to my Mom even though the Empress’ face had a warm smile on it. No exception including Frany! 😙

That’s why she is born to be a Matriarch no matter where she lands. Mom will definitely jot down Barb in her booklet…Even Philly Cheesesteak sandwich may not give Barb a break this time! btw Mom, 小胖 never heard of or spoke to anybody named "Barb" before!
