My dearest elder sister Dora has left us, which fills me with profound sorrow! Please accept my condolences! Yet, Dora's voice and smile continue to linger and emerge in my mind! Since I was a child, I often heard from my uncles how excellent, intelligent, and beautiful Sister Chenghui (Dora) was, and even the two thriving Jurchen trees in front of our grandfather's grave were said to symbolize Sister Chenghui's outstanding qualities! Dora is the pride of our entire Xia family. I was filled with respect and appreciation! Sister Dora has always been a role model deep in my heart! It wasn't until 1982, when I came to America and met her, that I saw she was not only excellent, talented, and beautiful, but also very kind and lovely! She taught me English, she taught me how to drive, and the technique of parallel parking was something she taught me hand in hand! Thank you! Later, Sister Dora applied for immigration for our whole family to come to America, allowing me to finally reunite with my birth parents and siblings. During the waiting period for the immigration application, she often wrote letters to encourage us, making me feel the warmth of family love. Here, on behalf of my entire family, I extend our heartfelt thanks to Sister Dora! Thank you! And we wish her descendants happiness, prosperity, health, and good fortune! Please accept our condolences!
Love
Sister Sarah (Cheng Ling )
