Requiem
Tan Jie-Yi, Jolene
1985-2007
Dear Jolene
We have known each other since Primary One when we were in the same class (up till Primary Four). Thereafter our paths crossed again in Junior College, and we were in the same class again. Remember in Primary One both of us were sort-of the leaders of the class as monitors?
Your optimism and brightness always concealed any unhappiness. Those are the traits I remember best.
May you rest in peace. I know that you are still with us and may our paths cross again one day.
Cherish them when they’re here with you
But don’t cling on when they’ve to go
One day they must leave you
Just as one day you’ll leave them too
~~~ Quek Hui Ling: Letting Them Go
