After he successfully graduated he continued to take diploma courses after work to improve his qualifications.

To my late uncle,
You are the only one I can rely on to drop and pick up my 3rd boy Ian to Kennedy PS in Scarborough, his JK year during my busy bread winning year of the early 90s at your first arrival year to start your retirement years in Canada
That was a blessing from ABOVE.
You were surprised by a 4 year old boy Ian’s ability to give you clear direction of how to drive through the suburb streets to the school. Eh, you were new in driving around in Scarborough plus a young kid who never drive but has good sense of direction. That’s a team work. Thank you for letting my boy to be your guide while you served him as a GRAND UNCLE (Dai Sook Gong) driver.
A sweet memo on your memorial day. Cheer from above.
