2021 Christmas Letter
Merry Christmas from our house to yours, 2021 was a year marked with loss for our family. We lost 6 family members within the first 8 months of the year. The 6 th death being my Auntie Helen. This one was the most difficult for me personally. Most of you will know my Auntie Helen played a major role in all aspects of our extended family life. We viewed her as the matriarch of the BHAMM Family. Her loss hit hard, especially as her passing came on the heels of so many other deaths. Our only consolation is that she passed surrounded by her loved ones. We stood around her bed, shared our favourite memories and listened to her favourite songs during her final moments. I’m thankful we could be there to send her off in this way, but also to support Mom, Jason, Christine and Uncle Kwai during this painful time. Despite the heartache we all experienced the circle of life continues. Thanksgiving weekend our family celebrated a major event – the wedding of my cousin Jason to Sia Kuo.
