Our Beautiful World 97 ~ The Sounds of Silence

This week at



The prompt is...

The Sound of Silence


Singapore's founding father Mr. Lee Kuan Yew passed away late March, as a Singapore club leader here in Las Vegas, I hosted a memorial service at my home.


the memorial service back home in Singapore was a big deal, people lined up under the hot sun for as long as 10 hours just to pay their last respect, that is how great he was to the people in Singapore.

A small group of us gathered here in Las Vegas and have a moment of silence on Sunday, March 29.

    Lee Kuan Yew really lived a legendary life. I've been to SG and I must say, it is first class all the way.
