I am launching my book, Ninety9 Reasons Why Cats Make Purrfect Pets – A Voice For Voiceless Stray Cats

DATE     :  SATURDAY 1st July 2023

TIME      :  12.00 to 4.00 pm

VENUE  :  #02-31/32 Thomson Plaza (shop across from KFC) 

You are all invited to this event. 

Besides giving me support :-) there is a cat talk, “Recipe For a Happy Cat” by a Cat Behaviorist Specialist, craft activities for children, décor items for sale, and an auction of a cat house…all activities aim to raise funds for different cat welfare groups.

Admission to the launch is free! You only spend when you buy a book, décor items, or even bid for the cat house – all in support of cat rescuers’ work.

This is an open event, so do feel free to invite your family, bring your grandchildren for the craft activities, bring your friends who love cats or are cat curious. 

If you have not been to a book launch, this is a wonderful opportunity! Never too old to experience something new and different! I have not met any of you yet so will be very glad to see you there! 

After visiting the book launch, you may like to proceed to the Kentucky Fried Chicken right across, steps away from the launch venue…to spend more time to catch up over a snack or drink (expenses on yourself.)

Please do indicate your attendance so I know to look out for you. :-)

Look forward to see you all there!

In the early days of SHC, we had EC events. As we move on with the club, we still require all SHC events to be EO events only.

However this requirement has become not practical for many events.

Today, SHC Admin, Dolly Lim, also a pioneer since 2005, proposed allowing for EC events . I shall review this and revert with a position in a weeks time.

1. SHC EO events can only be participated by Ordinary members.

2. EC events are organised by members, and partially participated by friends of members.

3. , SHC members, ECs, may publish their photos or videos in SHC Forum or Facebook.

Only mames, groups and photos of Ordinary members can be published in the forum.

4. We will not support anti SHC activities..

5. In doubt, consult the SHC admin Dolly Lim or Sally. Foo or myself.

For SHC Facement, approval can be given by Facebook admin Jean Lim. Facebook is more free for EC events

OBITUARY – Mdm Susan Tan Chwee Huay

Today, I want to share with you a very personal and emotional story. It’s about Susan Tan, who was my friend and committee member for Batam D&D many years ago. She passed away early this wee morning after suffering a stroke during a trip to Ipoh in September 2022. She was in her golden years.

Susan and I met when we were both part of the committee for the Batam annual dinner trip in 2018. We had to organize everything from the venue, the food, the entertainment, and the transportation. It was a lot of work, but we managed to pull it off. Susan, a very outspoken friend never shy to voice out her opinion. She was always ready to try new things and learn from her mistakes. She at times, a troublemaker who created havoc for others, but that is her, with a great sense of humor and a big heart.

Susan loved her family very much, they are her pride and joy. She would show me pictures of them and tell me stories about their achievements and adventures. She was indeed a devoted mother who wanted the best for them. An image she inculcate in her shows her strong responsibilities as a parent.

I used not to like Susan’s way for being so outspoken. Sometimes, she would say things that hurt my feelings or made me angry. But I also admired her for being direct, honest and courageous. She never a boastful person unless she wanted to make a joke. She was a fighter in life, who faced many challenges and obstacles with determination and resilience. I saw her cooking workshop in zoom – very karang and skillful to complete the event. Bravo for her GungHo attitude.

When I heard that Susan had a stroke, I was devastated with immediate rosary miracle prayer for her. I couldn’t believe that someone so full of life and energy could be struck down so suddenly. She managed to survive the stroke and was transferred to a nursing home, but was never fully recovered. She passed away peacefully in her sleep.

Now, I miss Susan with images floating in my memories of her. She was my dearest big sister, who taught me many things and supported me through thick and thin regarding SilverHairsClub. I know now she is resting at God’s side, and I hope she is happy and free from pain. I will always look upon the stars whenever I miss her.

Thank you for reading this eulogy for Susan Tan. She was a wonderful person who touched many lives. If you knew her, please share your memories of her in the comments below. And if you didn’t know her, please send your prayers and condolences to her family and friends.

PS : I usually don’t do eulogy on public but she – my only big sister.

The Mar mthly gathering was just over. Held at the Esplanade, unser the Helix bridge, the event went on very well. The weather was absolutely kind to all of us.

Alice, I am glad that there is tremendous show of fellow members getting together to get to know one another.

An Veron’s video is really fantastic. It captures the occasion very well. Under the open skies and Singapore’s most modern skyline, the singers sang and entertained fellow members.

So many helping hands. I thank the committee for the great show, the singers, the members who prepared the potluck, and the volunteers who picked up the lost sheep from the meeting point.

Share this video with your friends.

Most seniors like us turn to low-impact exercises and cycling is one to stay healthy in old age. We don’t have to be a great athlete to enjoy a ride.

Benefits (just to name a few):-

• Indoor stationery or outdoor cycling improves balance and leg strength.
• Give us more strength and stamina over time.
• A great way to improve our mental health, is ideal for seniors who suffer from memory loss…
• Is FUN and great supports for socializing when done in Groups ~ a great way to meet new friends.

EO – Douglas Chan (joined since 2005), our cycling enthusiast will guide you along your every trip, be it SG or JB.
