Tributes and Information |
Yuguang and Shuyin were married for 35 years and raised one son, Shidong, of Nagano, Japan and one daughter, Rui of Baltimore, MD. They were very loving and affectionate, although they had quite different hobbies and personalities. The hu*****and loved painting and was accomplished at Taichi. He was a little bit reserved. When talking with him, you would find he would be quiet and listen to you most of the time. To his children he was a special father because he made you feel the love from the bottom of his heart, even though he didn’t speak a lot. His wife was an active, open-minded and kind lady. She loved to try every thing that was novel to her, even though sometimes it was a little risky. Besides, she liked cooking and was very good at it. Those who had tried her cooking loved her and her food. Definitely, the most important thing about her was that she was a good mother. She listened, accompanied and did her best to comfort her children whenever they felt upset and frustrated even after they grew up. To both Yuguang and Shuyin, family was the most important thing. They loved each other and their children. The couple came to the United States to visit their daughter and stayed for almost a year. Their English was very limited. But it was amazing that they have made some good friends around the area where they lived. Sometimes the couple was invited by friends to have dinner or tea and they would spend hours together using only limited and simple words to communicate with each other. Actually, the majority of the neighbors knew the couple because it was so easy to make friends and get along with them. Though they were over 60, they were still enthusiastic about learning English as a foreign language. When a word came up, they would immediately turn to the dictionary or ask their daughter. Some times they even made their daughter write the words and sentences down so that it would be easy for them to memorize. Li Wan, son in law
