Uncle Aaron has been a big figure in the community; helping and serving everyone, and bringing a smile to everyone's faces. And what better way to show your faith than through your actions? Your service to the Church and the community will never be forgotten and is something that has undoubtedly inspired not just me but many others.

Even though I am 12813 km away, I can still feel the ripples in the water.

May the eternal light shine upon you.

I will always remember the family gatherings we had, with you ready to take the mic and sing your heart away. It was moments like this that made me feel like I could leave my worries for a while, and enjoy life for what it is. Thank you for being a fun, cheerful uncle and I'll miss you.

Love,

James

I have known Mel for a while now, and she’s one of the most bright, good-natured and witty people I know. Only when I met you at her wedding that’s when I realised that’s where she got these traits from. You were so happy that day and you kept coming to our table to give us a toast.

There is nothing more beautiful than the impact we made in people’s lives. Thank you for bringing up an amazing daughter (and sons). May you rest in peace.

Went through our TAS uni together. Doing assignments and cracking our heads to get thru exams.

Became closer after TAS and Aaron was my Financial Advisor managing my family’s insurance portfolio. Very sincere in his approach for our well being. Always lim kopi together. Not beer drinking kaki lah. But we had our makan (Teochew Food) when he went China in Apr 2018 with his mum and Teresa.

He is always sharing about his holidays, food therapy, his family and very proud of his son Marcus on his achievement in culinary. Support my son for his homebaking business too.

My only sadness, can’t find a photo taken with Aaron on my phone. But i have a nice photo of his smiling. I am happy to have Aaron with us all these years and i wish he rest in peace.

You had such a radiant smile at Mel's wedding. It was clear you were overjoyed that your favourite daughter was getting married to a kind, reliable and wonderful man who you welcomed into your family with open arms. I am glad we enjoyed a glass or wine (or three) together!

Mel always shared stories of you, citing that you are one of the most positive influences in her life, and how you were always the life to the party, bringing so much laughter and joy to everyone. Your impact on those around you is so evident. I see it everyday in Mel's light and optimism, and how she manages to find a silver lining even in difficult times.

Uncle Aaron, may you enjoy everlasting peace and joy in heaven.

Miss you dearly Aaron.

You are so committed to serving in the hospitality ministry, serving 2 masses every other week Sat & Sun and jokingly saying - he can be a priest if he does more.

You are our CEO (Chief Entertainment Officer) and main “orguinizer”. You have given so much bringing happiness to all.

Too sudden!

Angry that you just left us without saying anything.

Too sudden to accept.

But saw that you left us with a peacefully impression is comforting.

May you be with our Lord.

We miss you dearly.

You love to drink and even encouraged me to drink stout but I am a beer person.

Thank you for being a part of our lives.

You were the life of the party, cracking jokes, enjoying wine and whiskey. Thank you, for being a fun uncle, a loving and romantic husband to Aunty Teresa. May you rest in peace.

Wish I had a video but this is my favourite memory of you- serenading Aunty Teresa at one of our family lunches!

With all my love,

Elaine

You will be sorely missed in our family, our very own lobang king, Karaoke king and the live wire of the party. I will miss your ever readiness to give advice and reminders on the latest church events and being the most hospitable warden in IHM! I will miss your enjoyment of the turkey drumstick and oxtail stew this Christmas and many more Christmas to come. You will always be remembered! Agnes

Dear Uncle Aaron,

You’ll always be remembered as a humorous & loving father to Mel and a dedicated warden in IHM.

From helping us to get wine cellar seats at Ubin Seafood, to you & your family warmly welcoming me into IHM, to tekan-ing Jun Xiang during the gatecrash, to drinking at the wedding lunch with all of Mel’s friends - I’m glad we’ve crossed paths over the years, be it even the simple hellos at IHM.

And thanks for helping us to find seats during mass (Aunty Teresa reminded us not to be late anymore! 😅) Your dedication towards the church, made tangible by your tenure in the ministry of hospitality, is truly inspiring.

It’s hard to believe that you have passed on, but God must be so proud of what you have achieved during your time on earth. May you be bestowed with eternal peace as you journey your way up to reunite with our Heavenly Father.

Rest in peace Uncle Aaron.

Alvina & Melvin

Goodbye Bro Aaron. Like a candle in the wind the light may have gone out but your light remains bright in the memories of those whose lives you have touched in a wonderful way.

Thank you for coming into my life.

A simple man of love, smiles and great humility, I learnt so much from his servant leadership and joyous personality. This serves as a reminder to always be prepared for heaven as below was the gospel reading of the day he went home to be with his Father. Thank you for all you have shown and taught me. We love you!

Luke 21:34-36

That day will be sprung on you suddenly, like a trap

Jesus said to his disciples:

‘Watch yourselves, or your hearts will be coarsened with debauchery and drunkenness and the cares of life, and that day will be sprung on you suddenly, like a trap. For it will come down on every living man on the face of the earth. Stay awake, praying at all times for the strength to survive all that is going to happen, and to stand with confidence before the Son of Man.’

亲爱的囯盛，虽然我们在近年内才認识，你为人友善，给我的印象都是很亲切誠恳的。和你外出聚餐喝几杯我总觉得很轻松舒适，尽兴而归。虽然我人现在囯外，不能亲自送你最后一程，但我会常记住你这位好朋友的，希望你安息，一路走好 🙏 … 群辉

Uncle Aaron, I will always remember how happy you were at Mel’s wedding. Mel inherited your sense of humor and positive personality - we could all tell. You were so generous too, bringing our table bottles of wine because we were drinking a lot. You brought up Mel to be a wonderful woman. It is apparent how amazing you are as a person. The Lord is now receiving you into His loving arms. May you enjoy everlasting peace, laughter and love in heaven.

Dear Aaron, you will be missed 😢

We are deeply saddened to hear about your sudden passing. We just saw you last week when we attended the General Meeting for the Hospitality Ministers and when we served at the 8:30am mass. We will remember your cheerfulness and how you always make jokes. You will be missed. May you rest in peace.

Our sincere condolences to Sister Theresa and your family.

Sincerely,

Red, Jonet, Pio & Matteo Ramirez

We were colleagues together in AIA. I was chatting with him via WhatsApp as late as 7.33 pm on Thursday 30 November 2023. It therefore came as a great shock that he was called home the next day. Always cheerful and helpful, Aaron is without doubt, someone that I will miss. Indeed, it’s so sad to lose a good friend.

May his soul rest in peace 🙏🙏🙏

My deep & sincere condolences to the family.

Shalom

Francis Wong
