A Thank You Note from Justin's mom

Thank you all for your show of love and support in memory of Justin. Creative energy and spirituality permeated both memorial services organized by his friends and family in New York and Hongkong, reflecting the depth and breadth of Justin's connections with his world. The large canvas with farewell messages was interred with Justin's ashes at the Yuen's family grave.

To those of you who had not known Justin personally but had participated in various events organized by his friends, such as those through Journey for Justin, I thank you for your generosity. Please be assured that your contributions went either towards his medical costs or to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Caner Center in his memory; a small portion might be used to ensure the completion of his last project, FamilyLounger, an easy communication forum for cancer patients and their loved ones. A body of Justin's works can be found on www.jyuenjyuen.com

As Justin would certainly have asked, what have I learned from this surreal experience? I now have my answer, that our lives are only as good as the quality of the community we will leave behind. From meeting many of Justin's friends these past months, I can conclude that his was indeed a pretty good life.

Please feel free to respond to the posts and to each other. You are the true legacy of Justin's life. I will continue to monitor the Justlive site as long as I find it uncorrupted by spoofs or spams.
