Jingrong was my classmate at Sichuan University. I was heartbroken to hear she passed away - it took a long time for me to accept that she was gone.
I admired Jingrong for her bravery and strength when faced with the difficulties that she had to go through, and for her perseverance and determination in accomplishing the goals she had set. These excellent characteristics were what made her a unique and special person.
The times I spent with her during university, and when I reunited with her in 2017 and last year, were meaningful and wonderful moments that I will remember and cherish forever.

Edwin I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. As you know we have shared many wonderful times through the years. We were brought together by who makes us the most proud, our sons! She was so proud of you of and will be your angel throughout life. She was a very sweet person and we were lucky to know her, always sharing a smile, kindness and beautiful flowers.

I was introduced to Ms Li by my mother, who has always regarded Ms Li as her best friend. During the few times we had the opportunity to talk, I have always felt Ms Li's sincerity, warmth and generosity.
I still remember that when I was a teenager, Ms Li gave me an e-book reader, which was unusual in China at that time. Looking back, she really encouraged me to find peace in reading wherever I went to protect myself from life's challenges.
When I got married in Europe in 2021, Ms Li sent her blessings to me and my wife from across the Atlantic, restarting our communication again after several years. I remember her telling us about the joy of colourful autumn, and inviting us both to visit her. It is rare, even today, that friendships can continue across generations and continents.
We knew that Ms Li had been ill for some time. Although we were concerned, it was a relief to know that she was being treated by an appropriate team and that she was able to write to me as if she were well. The news that Ms Li had passed away hit my wife and me like a bolt of lightning. She kept all her battles to herself and did not let others feel the cruelty of the disease.
Sadly, Ms Li's friendship with us ended too soon. But her treasured memories will be carried on by the living and will shine a bright light on the journey ahead. May she rest in peace. May the living be strong. May sickness be conquered. May the world be at peace.

Dear JinRong, my dear friend and classmate;
These past few days, your warm, sunny smile has constantly filled my thoughts, along with every precious moment we shared and the cozy, tranquil atmosphere you created. Unable to contain my grief, I feel compelled to share...
It seems like only yesterday that we first met in early 1978. Following that, studying together, sharing meals, taking walks, and even winter swimming by the lotus pond—your company helped me through the confusing and struggling years of university life...
After graduation, our paths diverged as we each embarked on our own journeys, raising families, and losing contact for over a decade. Then, one day, news of you suddenly surfaced, and the joy and excitement I felt could have been from just yesterday...
On your several returns to China, we managed to meet a few times. Though brief, those moments were filled with your meticulous care and warmth, while I fell far short of reciprocating your gentle understanding. Despite the hardships posed by the pandemic, you made it back home, yet I was unable to offer any assistance.
Looking back, did the switch to communicating in English signify the beginning of your battle against illness? Unfortunately, my coarse self failed to realize it; not until persistent inquiries last April did you reveal, "It's a type of illness that's not easy to cure. I'm undergoing active treatments, which might initially take half a year, and possibly longer if I survive. Please don't tell others; I don't want to cause any disruptions during their preparations for celebrations. Nor do I wish to answer many questions, as mostly I don't know either." I was deeply shocked and began to despair, reaching out to Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners in the U.S. for you, but you assured me, "I have the best doctors and medical teams at one of the top U.S. hospitals. So don't worry." In my panic, I sent you messages almost daily until September when you said, "Thank you for your kind wishes and encouragement. But I may need to go quiet again for some time." This left me with deep self-reproach; in December, you mentioned, "I'm fine, still working full time remotely," and I naively believed you had overcome the ordeal, breathing a long sigh of relief. However, this May, an inexplicable anxiety often overtook me, wanting to send you a message, but holding back repeatedly. Little did I know that the Mother's Day greeting would become our final farewell...
Dear JinRong, I am immensely proud and comforted because of you, able to feel your beautiful, warm smile always. Your kindness, integrity, self-reliance, and indomitable spirit, akin to your WeChat ID -pine, bamboo, plum, will remain cherished. All memories of you I hold dear and intend to treasure myself in the years to come. Heaven is free from suffering; rest in peace, my dearest classmate. May we be classmates and close friends again in another lifetime.

The heartbreaking news of JinRong's passing has left us all in shock and deeply saddened.
We held an online memorial service on May 27, 2024, where everyone recalled the good times spent with her and shared precious memories......
In heaven, there is no pain; rest in peace, dear JinRong.
May we be classmates and close friends again in another lifetime.

I worked with Jinrong at the State University of New York System Administration. She was one of the kindest and supportive people that I ever met. I always enjoyed our talks. She will be missed by her SUNY family. My sincere condolences to Edwin.

Her passing left me unable to return to normal for a long time.
She was my best friend, but I couldn't help her.
Regret that I didn't visit her sooner, regret that I didn't talk to her about her future plans and hopes...

It was heartbreaking to hear of the passing of Jinrong. To many of us, Jinrong was more than just a friend. She was one of the nicest persons. She touched the lives of many and left an indelible mark on our hearts. She was the embodiment of kindness, compassion, intelligence and devotion.
I had the fortune of being her undergraduate classmate for four years and worked in the same laboratory for one semester during our thesis research in at Sichuan University four decades ago. Our paths crossed again several times after we moved to the States. She was always cheerful, kind and carrying. She will be dearly missed and she will forever live in our hearts.
