Brought together in sadness,
but united in the loving memory of a remarkable matriarch we remember the extraordinary life
of Yueh-Lan Wang. Known as Big Mother, she married YC Wang while both were teenagers.
It marked the start of a married life of devotion for YC Wang's only legal wife, in the full
service of her husband s business ambitions and their shared dream of happiness together.
Always kind and selfless, Yueh-Lan's virtues were in evidence from the start. Despite the hardships and privations she and
her husband faced, when she learned of the existence of YC Wang s second family, she
insisted on them being welcomed into the household. It was a happy arrangement that worked well.
Presbyterian Minister, Weng Hsiu Kung, who baptized Yueh-Lan into the Christian faith,
remembers that happiness after the young and growing family had moved to Taipei.
Yueh-Lan Wang would want others to remember the genuine happiness she felt, and celebrate a life so full of blessings.
And of all Yueh-Lan's virtues, the ones that will be so fondly remembered the most,
will be her profound kindness and calm.
In conducting the service, Minister Weng is completing a spiritual journey with Yueh-Lan,
that began with her baptism all these years ago.
