Rare reunion with Mr Leow : May-19

After Mr Leow left NYJC many year back, all of us had lost contact with him.  As such, it was a rare coincidence to be able to meet up with Mr Leow after almost 30 years.

Unluckily he met an accident recently which left him with a fractured arm, but the good side about this was some NYJC alumni visited him and posted on his FB which gave us the lead to be able to catch up with him again.
Mr Leow was instrumental in building up NYJC pugilistic society during my college days.  Our society was at the verge of closing down until he took over and guided us how to market and revive it.  We subsequently were able to recruit a healthy number of members into the society and also put on several great performance with his assistance, like the Pugilistic Night and SYF.  Mr Leow was a committed and yet fun teacher in charge too, bring many of us to our first school oversea trips like Malaysia and Thailand.
Despite at the age of 78, he still remembered most of us and we joyously chat for almost 2 hours before returning him to rest.  He would probably the teacher whom many of us respect a great deal and we hoped to continue to keep in touch with him despite the fact that he still did not have a handphone until today.
