     On June 16, 2008, the Mandarin Chinese School, ACP foundation and the entire Chinese Community of Dallas-Fort Worth lost two dearest friends Dr. Li Jia and Teacher Qian Yun to a car accident in New York.  We have established this memorial web site to let friends and relatives have a venue to express their deep love and admiration for the great couple, and to extend their condolences to the Li and Qian families, especially to the couple’s only son, Mr. Li You.   

     The sudden and early passing-away of Dr. Li and Teacher Qian is a huge loss, not only to their beloved son, Li You, and their families, but also to the entire community. Their tremendous contribution to the community has made DFW a better place to live for all of us.

      They will be missed by us all !

Stories from friends:

By Gong,Wei

     I was planning my Geneva trip for visiting my late sister when the sad news arrived. I had through disbelieved, speechless, shocked, then numbed….  

     I have been living at Arlington for over 20 years. The name of Qian Yun has been always mentioned when there were any Chinese community activities. Although some of my long time friends mentioned her constantly, I have known her in person just a few years ago.  To me, her name has been always linked with the warmness. Here, I’m sharing a couple of stories in remembering her.

     It was a party at Huixiang’s home. It may be the first time I meet Yun or one of early ones. I was looking around the food table and tried to pick up some fruits into my plate. Yun came over and recommended me to try her strawberry. She ensured me that her berries were not only in good quality also very clean. Then she taught me how to wash fruits like berry type. Rinse them, soak in salt water for a couple of minutes, then rinse again. I tried her berry and it was the best strawberry I had never had. Until today, I clean berries or grapes just like she taught. I did not thanked her for the tip. Thank you, Qian Yun! 

     It happened at least two or three times. I was preoccupied with other matters while running errands with my daughter. I didn’t see Yun was there and waved to me happily. Diane pulled my sleeve and said ‘Mama, your friend’. I lift my head and saw a smiling Yun there.  It always lights my spirits when you got warm greetings while doing the boring chore.

     Last night, I started the sad news with kids and Mike and just couldn’t finish it. Late, Diane asked whether I have Aunt's pictures. I do. I took them on 5/26/2008 and never thought sending them out. In deep of my mind, there is always a chance we will run cross each other and no need in hurry, but...

     My heart goes with their beloved son Li You!
