A Tribute to Raymond Lim Khoon Leng

Brother Ah Pheng as we all address him,

is a Good Comrade of Ours

And He could bring us Pride

Putting His Heart and Soul in support

through Joy and Pain was with Us side by side

We could still remember His Laughter, Words of Support and Encouragement

He stood True to the cause of CMAA,

serving with Sincerity and Strong Faith for Thirty Five Years

He came, uplifted Us and kept Us Higher and Higher, Stronger and Stronger

Keep it up and We know You will be there by Our side

And, say, together We will be growing in Strength and Stature

Oh, how You could have been still be a Pillar of Strength

to those faithful of CMAA

But, alas, We know by now You are singing

Proud, Forever and Ever More

And for Us it is going to be a long night

For Ah Pheng, Our Dear Friend & Brother have found another Home

Oh indeed, He has found another Home in Eternity, to be at Peace

With sorrowful hearts, minds and tears, But We Rejoice

Knowing He is not alone and He has found Eternal Rest in Peace.

Farewell, Ah Pheng Hia...

A Dedication from All at CMAA (16^th May 2009)
