We have all despaired at our loss over the past week and only the strength of the message you gave us through your years of giving has afforded us the strength to move forward.
一個星期以來，我們全家都生活在痛失親人的絕望中，惟有你多年慷慨留下的信心和力量才讓我們有力量繼續走下去。
There is a temptation to rush to canonize your memory. There is no need to do so. You stand tall enough as a human being of unique qualities not to need to be seen as a saint. Indeed, to sanctify your memory would be to miss out on the very core of your being, your wonderfully mischievous sense of humor, with a laugh that bent you double. Your joy for life transmitted wherever you took your smile and the sparkle in those unforgettable eyes. Your boundless energy which you could barely contain.
人們試圖匆匆圣化對你的回憶，沒有必要這樣做。作為一個有杰出品質的人，你已經站得很高了，沒有必要被看作圣人。的確，圣化對你的回憶就是忽視你最本質的東西。無論什么時候，你那奇妙的、帶點調皮的、忍俊不禁的詼諧，你那令人難忘的微笑閃爍的眼神，總把生活的歡愉帶給別人，你旺盛不竭的精力超過你身體所能承受的限度。
But your greatest gift was your intuition and it was a gift you used wisely. This is what underpinned all your other wonderful attributes and if we look to analyze what it was about you that had such a wide appeal we find it in your instinctive feel for what was really important in all our lives.
你最大的天賦是天生待人處事的賢淑，這個天賦你運用得恰到好處。你的其他種種的優良品性就是從這個天性衍生出來的。如果我們試著分析你怎么有這樣巨大的吸引力，我們就會找到答案，答案就在于你對我們生命中真正重要的東西有同情心。
Without your God-given sensitivity we would be immersed in greater ignorance at the anguish of AIDS and HIV sufferers, the plight of the homeless, the isolation of lepers, the random destruction of landmines.
如果沒有你那天賜的敏感，今天我們對艾滋病病人的痛苦，對無家可歸的人的窘境，對麻瘋病患者被孤立的感覺，對被地雷隨意殺傷的人的不幸，要冷漠得多。
