Mr. George Lim – A personal tribute
George Lim Sin Pak 28 August 1935 - 31 July 2014
The first time you came to see I was
impressed with your high regards you had for me because you felt I stood for
justice which was your inner desire.
Over the subsequent years I have come
to know you better and established a close rapport with you. You gave me so
much strength and encouragement to accomplish all that we had together in our
TBC Community is such a short period. You were truly a pillar of TBC
I was inspired by your disciplined
lifestyle, your willingness to work and go out of the way to help the poor and
needy even at an advanced age when many would want to rest.
Your past experiences in the fight against
the communists as a policeman, against corruption as anti-corruption officer, against
injustice and power abuse as a law-abiding citizen are useful lesson for me and
the younger generation which cannot be bought or obtained with any degree.
Your unshakable faith in God even
during severe trials make me feel small when I tend to lose faith and give up so easily. Your devotion to Our
Lady and the Rosary was remarkable
I will surely miss you especially
during our future charitable projects, prayer sessions, and fellowships and
most importantly during our ‘thirsty nights’.
I thank you for the wonderful times I
had with you which I will cherish till the end.
It is painful to think you are not
there anymore, more so when you had left so suddenly without even saying
goodbye
But I know you have gone to a better
place where there will be greater peace and happiness in the presence of God
and his angels and saints
I will continue your work in our TBC
Community in which you were a loyal and tireless comrade and will continue to
work and pray for your family
May your soul rest in peace
