In Memory of Grandmother, Lady Yan

Grandmother, several summers ago, I never forgot that cloudless sky but with one sole beautiful gentle fuchsia cloud looking down to accompany me, as I said farewell to you in Chicago. She contributed to my being a lady with inner strength. A very generous person and being a judge’s daughter, the aristocratic manners didn’t diminish her self-esteem throughout the wartime hardship. Grandmother, could you love me again and be my protector in another life?
