Xiang Yun’s husband Edmund Chen, 62, as well as their children Chen Xi, 32, and Chen Yixin, 23, also paid tribute to their mother-in-law and grandmother.
Describing his mother-in-law as a bright and warm sunflower, Edmund wrote: “Thank you for your care and love all these while, thank you for loving this family. Rest in peace, we love you always.”
Meanwhile, Yixin wrote: “To the cutest Koreaboo to ever live on this planet, I’m glad I got to see you one last time. I love you Popo, till we meet again.”
Unfortunately, Chen Xi, who moved to the UK to study arts management at King’s College London last week, did not manage to be with his grandma before she died.
“Woke up to heavy news this morning. Amidst the chaotic house hunting and administration duties to settle, my grandmother passed away in the wee hours of the morning,” said Chen Xi.
“I am sorry I couldn’t be there by your side Popo, I love you so much,” he added.
According to Xiang Yun’s Instagram post, her mother’s wake started at 4pm on Tuesday (Sep 12) at MacPherson and will end on Saturday (Sep 16) with the cortege leaving for Mandai Crematorium in the morning.
