Hey Joanne, Thank you for infusing us with your authenticity, fun personality,  assuring presence, affirming words and kind and generous gestures. Your ability to help us make sense of challenging situations has made YT a safe and affirming place.

I am excited to see how God will unfold His plan for you in the new season.

Appreciate you deeply.

Much love and blessings

Dear Joanne, thank you for leading the team these three years! I really appreciate your gentleness - always encouraging and authentic; your courage - always there to challenge us towards growth; your heart for us - always thinking of all our well-being! So glad to have been under you and our team of seniors. The support I have received has been truly precious and significant in my growth as a helping professional! Just want to let you know that I really appreciate you and what you have done for us!

Dearest Joanne,

I believe the first time we met was in TJ? What I can remember is just seeing this cheerful, easy-going, friendly individual that never failed to bring joy to any setting that we were in. Along the way, especially during the car rides, I realized that you have a special talent...it took you less than 5 minutes to "dig out" some of my innermost thoughts/emotions (HAHAHA :D). I am very blessed that God has decided to place you in my life. Your calm composure, your candidness, your belief in me as a CW and as my own individual, has been inspiring and heartwarming. What's more, you have been a constant in some of the most difficult periods of my life and for that I am eternally grateful. Thank you for being a colleague, a boss (the best ever!!!), and a friend. God bless you and your family and for whatever lies ahead for you. You will do great and awesome things!!! :)

Love
Daniel Pillay :)

Dear Joanne,                                                           Thank you for being such a great blessing to us! 🧡 What you have taught and done for me, really means a lot to me!!!                                                         I remember how you would ask us to sit in a circle during physical centre meeting and I really like it because meeting became so much fun. I remember how I co-worked with you for client E, and you were so patient with me. Even now as you help me with my complex cases and ACP, you continue to be so nurturing. It is so interesting and meaningful to have you as my group supervision facilitator as I learn so much from you. I am always amazed how you can lead us (not easy right since we are naughty) while being a mother too. Though during these covid period, we did not spend much time together, but I am glad you get to spend more time with your family. I know that God has amazing plans for you and I pray that you get to enjoy whatever come your way and be happy!       Love, Sherlyn

Hi Joanne! Thank you so much for being such a good CH! Though my time in YT was short, you definitely tried ur best to be there and support me even through ur busy schedule. As u step down from the role, praying that u will have more time for yourself and ur family! All the best

With love, kaixin

Dearest Joanne...
I still remember my first impression of you when I was a very new staff in FY is that you looked very stern in meetings. I'm thankful that you had the opportunity to come to Yew Tee as a CH so that i can get to know you much better and change my initial impression of you. Always feels happy whenever you come to office and started to call our names very enthusiastically and asking us how are we. Kinda miss those times when we can be in office together. Thank you for allowing me to say "No" to your Sabbathical leave even though till today, i'm not sure what came upon me to say that in a meeting. hahaha. 😂 Come to think of it, i'm glad u went for your Sabbathical leave so that we can enjoy more of you as a CH in Yew Tee. Change is like a constant in our lives, though you are stepping down as a CH (i won't say "NO" anymore, haha 😜), I hope you can enjoy this slower pace at work and give your mind and heart some rest. Through the rest, may you discover God's guidance and direction in your life and fulfill His purpose for you! Excited for you... JIA YOU Joanne, 我们永远支持你！💓

Luv, Calyn ❣️

Dear Joanne,
I miss you so much!! Thank you for all your kindness and patience in nurturing me back in Fei Yue. Even when I left, you still kept in touch with me and so kindly helped me with various references. I am so grateful for the time you’ve taken even when you are so, so busy with work and family life. You model servant leadership and faithfulness (and middle-aged coolness 😂) in the best way possible and I have learnt so much from you. I kinda wish I will have a chance to work with you again in future. I wholeheartedly wish you nothing but the best!! Upward and onward!

Love,
Alithea

Hi Joanne! Remember me? :P (Hahaha, please don't roll your eyes at me...) Just dropping by virtually to say that I've missed you! I'd been so blessed by your leadership, supervision, and friendship during my time at FY. Even as you step down from the CH role, I know that you will continue to be a blessing in whatever God is calling you to. May His love nourish you, just as you have nourished us by your love! ♥ Sharyn

It's my privilege to be your interviewee when I join FY. A big THANK YOU for your encouraging words during the interview, I really appreciate that. Wish you all the best and I hope that we would still have chance to work together. I believe I still have a lot to learn from you.

What an amazing thing you've done for the pass..... how many years? Being in YT and being such a meaningful part of everyone's work & life!

Thank you for being you and your efforts and heart in YT! Although we did not have quantity in working together, we definitely had quality! Ehhhh.... :)

Enjoy your time as a non-CH (it's been a while) and may you be able to do the things you love to do!
See you soon!

Dear boss (can I still call you this?),

Words cannot express the gratitude I have to you for your guidance these 3 years. Thank you for journeying with me through the challenges I've faced, not giving up on my avoidant self and encouraging me to be the best version of a Social Worker I can be. Thank you for leading YT in a non-task-focused way, and inspiring us with your wisdom and skills. I hope to continue to learn from you as long as we both can. God bless you!

Angelin.

Joanneeeeee, when you said you will take up YT CH, i rmb asking u x100 times u sure, u sure, u sure? Although in my heart, i was like yessssssss! Thanks for coming over and your heartbeat for people and leadership is what really pulled the whole centre together and tide us through the whole crazy CB, covid and reno adjustments. Although this is the "2nd" time i am transiting out from having you as CH (CW, YT)... got 3rd time or not, hahahaha... (imagine u rolling your eyes), your talents, skills and leadership will definitely still be a big blessing to many many as you have already left the legacy in the footprints you left behind. Luv, Baoru

Dear Joanne,

Thank you for leading Yew Tee and being a wonderful leader and friend to me. I will miss you terribly despite my time here being short. Grateful that you chose to stay in YT with us and I hope you continue to find overflowing joy and meaning as you focus on areas that excites you to deepen and grow. Hope to still consult you whenever! God bless you. : ) Weig

Hi Joanne,
只能意会，不能言传。。
It can only be understood, not spoken. .
Thank you belly much!! 😍

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Joanne,
Thank you for always being so supportive and providing a listening ear especially for my very tough and challenging cases and being aligned with me when we had to advocate to CPS. Thanks for seeing us through these few years of ups and downs and adjusting to COVID and the new normal. Your flexibility and courage to advocate for us as a centre has made Yew Tee such a wonderful place to be in. May you have time in this new season to rest, recharge and re-vision your next chapter to be who God wants you to be and inspire many more young workers to carry on the work.

Your fellow labourer-in-Christ,
Bee Shan

Hi Joanne, thanks for allowing us to appreciate you through this even though it might be awkward for you. 😂

Thank you for being you - always celebrating our strengths and embracing our weaknesses. Thank you for your gentleness and countless times that you just allowed me to be vulnerable, rant x 999 and for checking in on me. Thank you for developing each and every one of us. Thank you for all the behind the scenes work that you do for us and our clients. 🧡

Favourite memories - sup meeting at your house and the chill brunch at Tzu Chi, long time ago bonding at JB, our zoom calls and chats. Least favourite memory - walking from HEART to Botanics 😂

Thank you for being you! We celebrate you and honour all that you have done for us. 🧡 - Sheena

You have shown me how one can be approachable, caring and flexible and yet have the charisma to give direction and people will follow. =)  Hope u get abit more time now since u will no longer be our CH. See you around!

Dear Joanne,
Thank you for your hard work and service as Yew Tee's Centre Head for all these years. You have shown us how a good leader should be and we have flourished as a centre under your guidance. I miss the fun times we had together when we could meet physically! Thank you especially for being kind and understanding to us, for genuinely showing care and concern to each and everyone of us despite your busy schedule. As you step into this new season, may you experience more of God and continue to be a light that shines and impact others' lives! <3, Diana
