Eulogy by Quah Poh Keat, 1st Wake Service, 2 May 2010


I have known Boon Kee for over 25 years. During this time I have found her to be an effective role model and a beacon of light in the marketplace.It is easier to shine as a Christian in the church and much more difficult to live out our Christian principles in the marketplace.

Boon Kee's consistency truly identifies her as an ambassador for Christ in the marketplace which I believe our Lord Jesus is proud of.Boon Kee played her role well as she is gentle in spirit and caring towards her staff working under her seeking the best for them and is a team player with everyone.At the same time she is understanding and committed to the goals of the business. She has excelled well and she will certainly rank as among the best I have worked with. It was always a pleasure seeing her at work.

Not long after she has been diagnosed with cancer her selfless nature showed through as she reached out to those who suffered from cancer. I have referred a number of friends to her. She not only will call them up but will also visit them bringing hope and cheer to those who were frightened and confused in what they were going through. Each ocassion she sees it as an opportunity to serve and she gave of herself joyfully.

I will miss her and her cheerful disposition.


Thank you Mark for sharing Boon Kee with us and the opportunity for me to pen a few words.

Regards and God bless
Poh Keat
