My dear Friend,

Perhaps I may have wished that we could have spent more time together,

Perhaps I could have cursed at the haste that you were summoned;

Perhaps I could have mourned at your passing;

But instead, I'll just thank you for all that you have shared and taught me;

And forever cherish all the memories that you have left behind...

May your soul rest in peace... today, tomorrow and always my dear friend.

Dearly and deeply missed by the Koh brothers and all your friends.

Chris Oh Boon Hin aka Ah Boon aka Charbo - however known is still the fun loving, adventureous Chris to us. He was one of the very few that took me as a friend when I first entered the hamming world. He taught me all that is to know in off-roading too. He has eaten, drank, camped and all that a friend would do together with me. His youngest son and mine shared the same name. His wife Cynthia are friends with mine Shirley. We used to enjoy the same Sampoerna which I have now given up. (I wished he did too)

All said and done, he has now given up completely. There is a phrase that goes; "When we wake up in the morning, we have two simple choices, go back to sleep and dream or wake up and chase those dreams" I would like to think that Chris has always been a dream chaser thus his perseverance in seeing his dream of being a successful house builder. I guess the time has come for him to not wake up and drift into a beautiful dream forever and ever.

I know he is watching from above and smiling at all the beautiful legacies he has left behind. To you my friend, rest well - it is much needed. Look up your earlier friends that are up there with you. With your humour and attitude, I am sure you would bring greater joy to the hamming fratenity in the other realm up there.

Gone but not forgotten.

Farewell, i bid you farewell. In these couple of years that i have known you, you were always willing to lend a hand and indeed a true friend.
Thou we seldom meet up for drinks & gathering, we do meet up quite frequently for breakfast & chat away - something i would missed dearly.

Rest well and may your soul rest in peace.

I remembered my first few QSO as a newbie in HAM fraternity was with Chris, he was a patient gentleman and taught me thoroughly and that includes offroading. Whilst we seldom met you are always there if an advice ever needed, you'll be truly missed!

73's forever
