Wai has been a kind, gracious presence in my life for over 30 years. I am so glad I had the chance to see her and hold her hand last week. I know she loved me and I loved her. She was a gentle, loving soul who, like all of us, did the very best she could. Taran gave her such joy and pleasure. Thank you, Wai, for being part of my life. Rest In Peace.
