Uncle I may have graduated close to 8 years ago but you stand out brightly in my memory as a familiar figure in the DHS canteen that I would have interacted with almost every day of my time there. You showed up everyday with a happy smile, patience and was always very human and kind with us students who must have at times been a chaotic bunch. Your ice milo was my pick me up at recess, fuelled me for CCA or extra classes, and was a sweet treat at the end of long school days I could look forward to. (Your coffee+milo kept me overly awake in senior high but that’s because I don’t do well with caffeine as I would come to realise years after graduating.) You were always there, always a steady presence at the drinks stall that I came to take it for granted that you would always be around. When I returned to DHS a year or two after covid I noticed your hair was greyer than I remembered. That reminded me of time passing. But still I thought there might be more years still and after that years of happy, well-deserved retirement. This news came as a shock; Uncle you left earlier than I thought you would. The DHS canteen will never be the same again. I hope you are at peace now Uncle, and that your family knows how much you impacted and meant to so many generations of students. Those who knew you mourn your loss and we will miss you very much.

Thank you Uncle Steven for all the happy memories I’ve had in my 6 years of Dunman High! I always bought drinks from your stall and I fondly remember how we used to converse in Cantonese! I’m sad to hear of your passing, thank you for sharing your love and kindness through the years with us! Rest in peace and 一路好走！

Dear uncle,

uncle, you were such an important constant in dunman high, that i only realised after you stopped serving the drinks in stall 16. your friendliness, small talks, smile, energy, speed, will always be remembered in our hearts. you were here since i was an year one, and now im an year six and it hurts me to know that you won’t be there when we are graduating. you had a special place in my heart, because you frequently surprised me with your fluent korean, thanks to your korean wife. i would miss conversing with you and i regret that i had not engaged in longer conversations to get to know you just because i was shy. i hope you would know that us students truly appreciate and miss you. you will always hold a special place in my heart. rest well, uncle. i hope you are in peace.

Dear Uncle Steven,

Many tears were shed over the last few days, and you will be missed by generations of past and present Dunmanians alike. You were always cheerful and ready to serve us drinks, remembering our frequent orders, names and CCAs regardless of how often we visited the stall. As if that was not enough, you would also stay late to not leave the night study/CCA students behind, and let us keep things in the fridge or your stall if we needed the space. There were many other things you did, like reopening the shutters to serve the last couple of students when they wanted to get a drink, giving us ice for free, and letting us pay on credit and much more.

Even though I have graduated many years ago, I will always remember my favorite ribena order and the familiar sight of you filling 2 cups of drinks at once to keep up with the snaking queues during peak hours. While everyone who has heard the news must be devastated, I think we are also heartened to know that you are dearly remembered by all who ever met you. Thank you for brightening up everyone's life, and your story will be one that I am happy to pass down to my future students to tell them that humble professionals like you are also the unsung heroes of our community.

There will be a void in school now, but we all hope you didn't suffer too much at the end - it is over now and you can rest easy! To Uncle and his family, take care and wishing that you all remain in good health during these incredibly rough times. Sending love and support <3

Dear drinks stall uncle,

I will always remember the warmth you brought to my schooling life at DHS. You were more than just a drinks stall uncle - you were a great teacher to many of us, imparting life lessons on optimism, generosity and sincerity. I remember there were days where I did not have my wallet with me and you would chirpily say ‘不要紧！以后再还！’

一路走好. You will be missed.

# data[].attributes.body
Uncle, thanks for being so friendly every time I walk by. Remembering me when I came back as an alumni a few years later. I will miss your milos, dou huas and milo oreos. Most importantly, I will miss your lively touch to the lives of so many dunmanians and mine. I remember the convos I has with you at your stall, not matter how short or long depending on the circumstances. Can't believe that you are gone so early. Rest well.

# data[].attributes.body
Hi Uncle Steven,

For the 5 years in DHS, there was never a week I wouldn't to buy a cup of iced milk tea or Milo from your stall. Your smile and cheerfulness has no doubt brightened everyone's days and created wonderful memories of our time in DHS. Thank you for sharing your happiness and love with us. Rest in Peace and 一路好走。

Thank you for sharing so many fond memories of my brother. You have let us know that besides being loved by family, he is also well loved by all you whom he came across throughout his 20+ years in DHS.
Many of you have also made his life fulflling and meaningful.
The attendence at the wake was a grand finale that you all have created for him.  It is also an endorsement of success of his living his believes and his natural characteristics.
On behalf of my family, thank you.
While my family is still coping with this deep sense of loss, many will too when you look at stall 16. The image of him is still so vivid.
We will always remember him with his sigature smile. I'm sure thats how he wanted us to remember him too.

Hi Uncle,

You were the sunshine among all the canteen stalls and a favourite among all the students. I was sad to hear of your passing.

I’ve graduated many years ago but I always loved how you were able to remember all the students - even those who already graduated - even though you had so many customers everyday. I loved your Milo peng, ribena nata, peach tea nata…

Rest in peace~

# data[].attributes.body
Hi uncle, I didn’t buy drinks very often when I was in DHS, but the times I did I remember your cheerful smile and how you easily brightened up everyone’s day whenever they visited the drink stall. Thank you for your hard work all these years, we were truly blessed to have received your love. Rest well. ❤️

hi uncle,

i’ve already cried for the past few days so this is gonna be a more light hearted post hehe! :) thank you for being my friend in dunman; you never failed to cheer me up with your infectious smile & laughter. thank you for teaching me how to be a better person, and for always caring about my schooling days. i remember vividly feeling kinda emotionless during graduation day, but i cried as soon as i bought that last milo and took that last video of you. thank you for being family in your little ways. thank you for always remembering my milobuyaopeng order, lending me a listening ear, & making my day 1% better everyday. i hope that we dunmanians have touched your life even just 1% the way you did to us, because that is already so so much.

i miss you a lot uncle, i always told myself to have no regrets in life but not going back to find you after 4 years would always be one of the greater regrets i’ll carry for life.

but don’t worry uncle! i promise to continue being a good girl, and do well in the future for you.

see you in the afterlife, okie?

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Uncle, I remember you were always the first to set up your stall and open early in the morning. During my senior high years, often times I would be the first few to reach school and order $1 iced coffee from you. It became the “ritual” I look forward to everyday. I will never forget your kind smile and your care and concern for students. I remember when I came back to DHS a few years after graduation, you actually still remember what’s my go-to order 🥹 一路走好 Uncle ❤️

# data[].attributes.body
dear uncle

it's honestly sad that i only got to know your name now, and i never got the chance to see you after graduating. although i only spent 2 years in dhs, your presence was definitely one of the unforgettable highlights. i deeply admire and appreciate the cheerfulness and patience with which you greet each student; your positivity was truly a beacon every recess. i remember when i first came to dhs, marvelling at the affordable prices of the drinks stall. in the beginning, i even kept giving you extra money out of habit, but you would smilingly return the rest. although my orders would vary, you amazingly figured out some sort of pattern that i myself still don't know, guessing my order before i know it myself. your memory must be amazing, and your heart, even more so. just as you kept all of us in your heart, so will every dunmanian remember you fondly. take care, and see you on the other side one day.

dear uncle Steven,

it is so hard to believe that someone who was serving us drinks at stall 16 happily just last year is no longer with us. I will never forget your enthusiasm after we finished PE and our CCA and were dying to have drinks, where you had a bright smile on your face and would greet us with such energy. You were one of the brightest and most friendly person in our school and I will never forget all the moments that were shared with you. I will definitely miss seeing you every day during recess and ordering our favourite drinks from you. I wish you happiness and peace wherever you are.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Uncle,

Although I graduated 6 years ago but I can still remember your bright smile. During my dhs days, I would always order weird concoctions from you and get you to help keep my cakes in your refrigerator. Thank you for always fulfilling my weird requests without hesitation. I have always felt amazed that you can rmb our usual orders or faces even after we have graduated. I rmb when I returned back to dhs to visit a few years after graduating, you saw me and said “回德明了啊”. Safe to say, there will be many teachers and classmates coming and going out of your life, but drink stall uncle will always be a constant to all dunmanians. Thank you for making my (and countless batches of dunnanians’) days in dhs brighter.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Uncle Steven,

Thank you for your service to the school for over 20 years. Thank you for loving the school and years of its students. I am sure everyone felt your love for the school and for us. You were memories of many generations and well loved by batches of Dunmanians. I am deeply saddened that I only got to know about you after you have passed. I am grateful for you even though I was only in DHS for 2 years. Rest in Peace.

# data[].attributes.body
Dearest Uncle Steven,

Thank you for always being so kind and caring! No matter the day, no matter the time, you always have a bright smile on your face that is the first thing that greets us when we enter the canteen. That kind smile of yours will be a memory that is imprinted in the hearts and minds of every Dunmanian generation that you have watched grow. May you rest in peace knowing your love and care towards Dunmanians is a legacy that will always be remembered♥️ Sending my deepest condolences to the Tee family

Dear Uncle,

It’s a bit hard to believe that I’m learning your name only 8 years after I’ve graduated in this way… you’ve always been affectionately referred to as “uncle!!” by most of us, and you chat with so many dunmanians in such an affable manner that we never needed to know each others’ names to feel close. You’re one of the first few faces I see in school on days that I reach before 7.30am in the morning. I’ll always remember my eyes closing and feeling so sleepy, until I see you setting up your store, where I’m automatically greeted with a wide smile on your face and your cafe latte jug in my hand, ready to pour me a cup. Thank you for your kindness and thoughtfulness to all of us alike, for your unwavering presence throughout my 6 years in DHS and for greeting us with a wide smile no matter how bad the school day was. You’re definitely one of the reasons why we love recess even more! I wish you happiness and peace wherever you are, and I hope that whoever you may be with, they know that they’ve gained a treasured soul!

Hi uncle,

Every morning you opened your shop the earliest and closed the latest. When I reached school at 7, half-asleep from having to take the early school bus, you would unfailingly greet me in the same positive, chirpy tone.

"the usual?"

I would nod my head, as he poured my sugary, yet heavenly concoction. he always watched me sip my coffee as I played brawl stars while I listened to music on my headphones, noise-cancelling on. his 冷咖啡1块 that was always consistently in stock kept me awake through my schooling days from y1 to y6.

every time after PE, we would race to stall 16, mostly dismayed to find that the long snaking queue had already started. it was one of the little joys in the day to see the counter empty at recess time. lost in conversation with friends as we waited for Milo.

during sectionals, we would sneak off from the music rooms, traversing half the school just to reach the canteen to see the familiar bright lights radiating from the store. hurriedly ordering a drink from eeny-miny-meeny-more, we would race off again with chicken patty in one hand and drink in another back to the MPRs (music practice rooms) to avoid getting caught.

When I came to Dunman for DSA interviews, my first ever interaction with someone in the school was at Stall 16, with Uncle showing me the dazzling array of colours, neatly-shelved drinks and bottles, leaving me spoilt for choice. I remember remarking to my parents that I wanted to go to Dunman because of the "amazing canteen". No matter 6:30am or 6:30pm, the first day of school or graduation day, I knew I could count on the fact that someone would happily greet me with a "Hello! What drink you want?". When I felt alone as a small 14-year-old kid in a sea of buildings, ostracised by classmates and trying desperately to fit into social circles, our small conversation about "how's school going?" took my mind off those worries, even if it was momentary. When it felt like the world was crashing down and I felt like I was fighting fire after fire at y6, lost in an identity crisis, sometimes that 咖啡 was that little solace.

I wish I had put down my headphones more (brawl stars could always wait). I wish that I told you more about our epic balling games and intense matches. I wish that I had just stayed that little while longer to chat with you beyond just the small talk, telling you about our conniving plan to escape from the MPRs. The stupid, naive kid I was, I took your presence for granted. I assumed that Stall 16 as we know it will always be around. The one store amongst a midst of changing ones that remained constant, the one that remained and will remain open, that'll greet me as I entered the canteen after December holidays, after Circuit Breaker, after graduation. The store that acted like an oasis of life in the empty school during Night Study Programme or Saturday morning CCA rehearsals.

That's why when I came back after graduation for a routine alumni event, I was heartbroken to find that Stall 16 was closed for a few months. I knew that the Dunman today was no longer the Dunman I had grown up in. Had I known that the last time I went back may be the last time Stall 16 was open, maybe I would have bought something a little more than just a milo. I hope that the eternal beings will treat you with the same sweetness as that 咖啡 every morning, the same sweetness that you've shown me as you watched me find my footing, and the same undying sweetness that you showed to generations, and generations of Dunmanians.

Thank you. And rest easy.

- a year 8

As an alumnus one of the things I missed the most about DHS was the ice milo and I always wanted to drink it again some day. I never imagined that you would no longer be here before then. Thank you for all you've done for us, and enabling all the weird drink combinations I came up with. We will miss you.

hi uncle, thank you so much for being so friendly and warm-hearted, and taking the time to chat and know about every one of us even though you did not need to. I remember how you were so friendly to me and despite working the whole day, while the other stalls were closed, you still remained open because you knew there might be students that just finished CCA and might be thirsty/hungry. Thank you so much for being an important part of the school and we will miss you dearly. Extending my condolences to your family as well. I hope you're in a much better place and I'll never forget your smiles and warmth towards everyone. once again, thank you so much uncle, and your kindness will forever be cherished.

Dear Uncle Steven,

I always frequent auntie's stall more, but I'm always dumbfounded of how you always remember the little interactions we have and always banter with me on our past memories. When I come to quickly get a drink for myself (or the large 1.5L bottles for my juniors), you always make our interactions so light and memorable for me to ponder about for the rest of the day, and even though I expect to leave in a rush, I always leave with at least a smile on my face or that tiny glimmer of happiness or peace that is hard to find in the pace of how everything moves. Looking back, I realise that uncle Steven is more than just a drink store uncle, but a teacher to many and a friend to more.

You left a strong impressionable legacy on what it means to be a Dunmanian. and everyone of us will remember that. 一路顺风 and God bless your ascent. (come visit us for caiqing please lion dance will miss you)

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Uncle,

Even after graduating from DHS 8 years ago, I still have fond memories of your cheerful and smiling face while serving us drinks. Even when I forgot to bring my wallet or money, you always trusted me to pay you back next time, I really appreciated that kind gesture you extended to me and it made me feel warm inside. It's always so nice to chat with you sometimes, and you would always be willing to find ways to sell us our favourite drinks even when they're banned, just to make us happy. We will always remember you as a bright spot in our lives and keep you in our hearts and memories. Thank you for always bringing us joy and I hope you find peace, wherever you are now. <3

dear uncle steven,

you are truly a superstar in dunman high, and seeing this news come to me all of a sudden makes my tears come rushing to me in an instant. 谢谢您那么多年的贡献，我非常感谢您永不磨灭的精神，每天12多个小时在学校工作也从未见过您的笑容动摇。那熟悉的声音总会响彻整个食堂，带来了家的温暖。🎵如果可以我想和你回到那天相遇，再次试一次您的 kopi🎶，后悔没有最后一次珍惜您独一无二的饮料。

uncle, 我们很多德明人到现在才知道您的名字，但您却记得我们的每一个名字，每一个外号，每一个细节。我们很多德明人不知道您的生日是什么日期，也没有一次过为您庆祝，但您却为了我们的生日而帮我们庆祝。以前您只是我们所谓的”drinks stall 16 uncle”，但现在您是我们最珍惜的人。Only miss the sun when it starts to snow，only hate the road when you're missing home，对不起以前不懂得珍惜您，但从现在开始，我们一定会记住您离开我们的日期，为您庆祝。i hope you are in a better place now, uncle, fly high and rest well 🕊️🤍

to uncle steven’s family, 保重身体健康，别太过于担心uncle，他已经在一个没有痛苦的地方了🩵 to papa steven，我们一定会继续支持您和您付出那么多努力的第十六摊位❤️ 保重，take care!

Dearest uncle (or affectionately known as “drink stall uncle” to so many of us), I graduated 9 years ago but you still remain one of the fondest memories of school for me. From how you always had a smile on your face, to the countless chit chats whenever it wasn’t peak hour at the drink stall. I remember always looking forward to you opening even on Saturdays sometimes so that I could have a cold drink after CCA. You probably couldn’t remember all our names but you remember the little bits of us in the stories that we told you, and in a sea of people I think it made me feel just a little more seen and heard. This is hard for me to write because I cannot imagine going back to Dunman and not seeing you at stall 16 anymore. If we had known it was the last time we were going to see you, I know we would all have spent so much more time chatting with you. We will all miss your warmth and your smile, and how you always had a seemingly endless menu of drinks. You have gone too soon, and Dunman was truly made a brighter place because of you. I know we will see each other again (hopefully over some good milo peng) ✨

To uncle’s family: Thank you for letting uncle be our beloved drink stall uncle. He is dearly loved and missed by all of us, and he’s touched our lives in one way or another. Take care ♥️

Uncle,

I remembered the first time I saw you back in DHS open house. You were the first few people I interacted with, and even before I was a Dunmanian I could already feel the warmth and care you have for students and anybody that bought from your stall. It was part of the reason why I even joined this school, as I felt cared for and loved at every turn. Soon, you became a daily visit for me, a place of comfort through all the hardships of studying and CCAs and everything else. Its truly remarkable how you remembered so many students' orders by heart, and taking the time to understand us and learn about us not just as students but as people. The daily short conversation with you was something I looked forward to, especially so when I visit after graduating. I was thankful that I came back frequently last year so that I could still catch up with you while you were still working.

Reading through all of these posts showcased the impact you had on so many generations of Dunmanians. Your passion and heart to serve is something that shaped us slightly one way or another. It hurts even more to know that you're gone as you were an image of strength and comfort to so many. Through all the long days you stayed, I've never once seen you tired, angry, frustrated. Instead, your bright smile and comforting voice would always be there to greet me. It's time for you to rest now uncle, and I hope you know that us Dunmanians will do you proud and continue to live on the legacy you tirelessly left behind for us. 一路好走, Uncle Steven.

dear uncle,

i still remember how we would always put cakes in your fridges because we wanted to celebrate our friend's birthday but didn't have any place to freeze the cake. you are such a cheerful and kind person, and that really stuck with me, and it's a shame later generations of dunmanians won't get to know your happy soul. hope you rest in peace, and that your family finds strength to get through this. goodbye!

hello uncle!

even though ive known you for a few years, this is the first time ive really gotten to know your name. i think it's such a pity that i have to find out this way, but i hope you are in a better place now. its still difficult to believe that you're gone, because the last time we saw you you had been perfectly fine and healthy. it just feels like yesterday when we joked and I bought milo from you! your stall was always the last to close and the only one i could get a snack from after late hours. we'll miss you a lot as a school. condolences to your family, and your father who also continued the stall in your absence. can't stress this enough but we will miss you, many people will. ❤️

heloo uncle, thank you for always being at your stall with a hearty smile and a big heart. I remember everytime when my trainings end late (sometimes even past 730pm) u will always be there when all the other stalls have closed. I remember asking you 为什么你每天这么迟才回家 and you responded that you wanted to wait for all the students to end trainings before you go home because you knew that we will always buy a cold drink after our tiring trainings. Once when i forgot to bring my wallet down with me to the canteen you told me 不用还，改次带钱包才还吧！it really touched me to see how kind hearted you are and that you will always strive to brighten up our days with the fleeting but joyous convos. 'I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die' ~John 11:25-26 RIP uncle

Hello uncle

You probably don’t remember me since I graduated 8 years ago

But i’ll always remember your constant positivity and spirit

Thanks for lighting up every recess break and making the dhs canteen a truly comfortable place to be in

Thanks for making the best oreo shakes 😭😭 so good that they were unjustly banned by the school in the name of healthy living

And the best 70c ice milo and $1 milo dinosaurs!!

Thanks for always greeting us with the most enthusiasm

Your energy and smile will always be remembered - you’ve gotten so many of us through our 6 years in DHS

I never thought you’d go so early and if I ever do visit DHS again it probably won’t feel the same anymore.

Rest in peace <3

Thank you uncle for always being so friendly to talk to and for being so positive every day throughout my years in Dunman High. You never fail to put a smile on students' faces and even during times where there was a long queue at your stall, you still treated each student with the utmost sincerity, while also being able to efficiently manage all the orders that were coming through. I really respect you and I will always strive to be just like you.

Dear Uncle,

I never knew you were also a believer of Christ until this happened, so while it pains me to know that a face as familiar as yours in my 6 important years of development as an individual in DHS, is no longer with us, i’m thankful that we will meet again where there’s no pain, in heaven with Jesus.

Thank you uncle for everything. I remember confiding in you when i was briefly bullied at some point in school, when i had relationship problems, albeit not deeply but just glazing past these happenings, you were always supportive and more than just an uncle selling me my daily ice coffee at 630am. You made my life better and tough days in school more joyful. I will never forget you and I know you are in a better place. See you soon, Uncle and God bless you ✝️✝️✝️❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨

dear uncle, i still remember the moments where you would greet us with a bright smile on your face whenever we approach your stall. i wasn’t a frequent customer nor was i anyone significant in your life but your kindness made me feel that i mattered and i’m sure that the same goes to everyone else. :”) i hope that you’re in a better place now and enjoying your life up in the clouds. we will miss you dearly and will never forget the love and dedication that you have shown to dhs.

thank you uncle steven for always being so friendly, ever since the first day when i first stepped into dhs. i still remember 4 years ago when you talked to us with such a huge smile and always did so throughout the 4 years that i have bought from your stall, and even having small conversations whenever your stall wasnt as busy during less crowded timings. i remember changing coins for notes even though they may have been a lot, and you still did it with a smile, or when i wanted to get rid of my coins and you sold to me a drink for a cheaper price, and it always brightened up my day whenever i bought from your stall. thank you for all these memories, hope you can be free of all pain and rest in peace uncle, you will be missed

Hi uncle,

some of my fondest memories of school are of you and the drink stall. you always remembered me and my order (kopi peng 小杯不要冰). and when I started asking you to fill my small plastic bottle with coffee to be environmentally friendly you insisted on charging me less because my bottle was smaller than the cup. at one point I was drinking multiple cups in an afternoon and every time you'd look at me concerned and say 读书很辛苦hor. it wasn't just coffee, I'd drink your milo after PE and beancurd in the evenings. I'd buy six packets of tissue at once because lecture hall air is terrible and I couldn't stop sneezing and you'd ask if I was sick and tell me to take care of myself. so many of memories of school are anchored to you and your stall. during the final days of A levels I heard the shutters of your stall closing for the last time until school reopened and I felt a sense of loss that even graduation didn't evoke in me. it didn't occur to me to say goodbye then, nor the one time I went back to school and bought your coffee for old time's sake. so, here I am now, belated as it is, to say thank you, and goodbye.

# data[].attributes.body
hi uncle, im just a student from dhs who occasionally patronised your stall, yet you were always so friendly and greeted me with smiles always, you always let us borrow the lighter for our birthday cakes or even let us store our birthday cakes in your stall temporarily. you didnt mind it at all. you were so generous and kind. thank you for everything. it’s so heartbreaking to know the world has lost a kind soul like you. uncle, i hope you’re in a much better place and know that so many of us will always remember you for your kindness.

hi uncle! thank you for being someone that was truly willing to listen and support us whenever we needed any help. i first knew you guys as the people who were always smiling and friendly to students and i think that made me feel very welcome into dhs at y1. thank you for remembering our orders and name even though there’s so many students and teachers daily and dedicating your entire life to being a canteen vendor for our school! i truly truly appreciate you and miss you from the bottom of my heart. to our favourite un-kley steven as we call you, 一路走好

hi uncle! you were truly one of my favourite people in dhs, you were always smiling and checking in on us, encouraging us when we were down, and of course serving us our favourite drinks :) i loved it when you started asking if i wanted my usual order, it really just shows how much you really cared to remember each and every one of us ❤️ i remember when i wanted to try some aloe vera for the first time, you refused to let me pay even though you had given me quite a bit, it was such a small gesture but your kindness genuinely made me so happy after a long day. i started looking forward to all the little chats i would have with you whenever i came by, even if i wasn't buying anything, your smiles always made everything better no matter what :) thank you for all the love and care you gave us, my dhs journey wouldn't have been the same without you. missing you always and forever ❤️

hi uncle, thank you for always being there for every single student in dhs. though the population in the school is extremely big, you always remembered my order and asked about my day. you will always automatically know my order whenever i go to your store though it varies every single year, always saying "beancurd 对吗?" or "oreo milkshake 啊". somedays i remember how you will secretly add extra oreos in my drink when there is no one at your store. when I was on a diet for my tkd competition, my friend and i were strictly on a water diet and will buy several drinks from your store, and you will always ask us if its enough to fill our stomachs. your stall was always the last to close and how every single one of us volleyball players will sprint to your store to order drinks and you will always sell your drinks to us despite your shutter already being half closed. we would run to your store in full gear while drenching in sweat with fill gear on and you will always ask, "刚完啊?" i also remembered how you allowed us to enter your store from the back during our trainings to fill our bottles with ice as we were training under the hot sun during my sec 1 and sec 2 days. or how our first instinct is to your store whenever we had break so that we can be first in line to buy your drinks.you will always take the time to ask us about our day and how we are coping during the eoy exams. thank you for being such an important part of my dhs journey and someone in my life. when you were away for your treatment, every single one of us will always say "i wish uncle is back" or "I miss uncle steven" as you were such an important part of our daily lives in dhs. every single meal was always paired with a drink from your store without doubt. everyone in dhs misses you and your warm smile uncle steven. you will forever be a part of my jouney in dhs and i will remember you forever. we all wish you a safe departure and may you rest in peace with all the blessings from our hearts🤍🤍🤍

Hi uncle, I've never revisited DHS since graduation, but the moment my junior told me about the news, all my memories came flooding back. I still remember being involved in an environmental sustainability project outside of DHS, constructing an art installation of Singapore using recycled materials. You were so supportive in our cause, encouraging me even when I lost faith and direction, going all out to help me collect plastic straws and spread the message to anyone who visited your drinks stall. Thank you for always taking care of us and cheering us on; your fatherly smile in the canteen was a mainstay for everyone. 这里收藏着无数个回忆，您就是这样照亮了无数个德明人的生活。一路走好，祝您安息 <3

Uncle，你總是以最燦爛的笑容和我們打招呼

# data[].attributes.body
Uncle，你總是以最燦爛的笑容和我們打招呼聊天，無形中成為了好幾代德明人最熟悉的臉孔。記得我高二那年，Homa為前往孟加拉的OCIP举办洗車筹款活动，你们非常慷慨地捐出善款，還信任我們這些大概都沒洗過車子的學生洗你們家的兩輛名車。學生時期我虽然不常買甜飲，但回來任教的時候你竟然記得我，問我以前是不是在德明讀書的，讓我非常感動。不論是學生或老師們邀請你參加活動，你都會二話不問地答應。謝謝你把一生貢獻給德明，你在把德明當成自己家的當兒，也讓德明成為了我們大家更溫暖的家。謝謝你，祝你一路好走。🥹

hey uncle, my 2 years in dhs seem like a blur to me now but i don't think i could have forgotten the little bits of positivity you brought to my days. your small gestures and passing comments (like promising to restock my favourite no sugar nutrisoy) seemed trivial then, but seeing everyone share the same sentiment now has made me realise the impact you made on the community. i hope you know that the thousands of us are grateful to have had our lives touched by you, and may you rest easy🙏

Dear Uncle Steven，

昨天和朋友聊到，6年的德明生活可能会遇到很多不同的老师和同学，但drinks stall uncle 确是每一届德明人都统一喜爱的人。

我以前经常找你买巧克力，你每次看到我就知道要给我拿Kinder Bueno，谢谢你记得每一个像我这样的德明npc。

在听到你离开的消息后，我去翻了以往记录过你的素材，发现你真的是dhsmcs的regular cast,每年都会出现在新年视频里面哦，很开心能够以这样的方式记录下你的dhs moments。

昨晚去参加完你的追思礼拜，看到好多Dunmanians，很多甚至是放学穿着校服来的学弟学妹们。

听你的爸爸讲昨天德明的学生来不停，包括很多老师也来，十几年前毕业的也有。这让我们看到Uncle Steven is loved by so many Dunmanians，因为他本身在工作中所注入的喜乐和热爱感染着每一个Dunmanian。

Uncle Steven, 谢谢你用你的热情和笑容点亮了每一个德明人的生活。

To Uncle 的家人们，要好好照顾自己，盼望与Uncle Steven 相聚的那一天。

Dear Uncle Steven,

It pains me to learn of how a familiar face is gone just like that. You're forever smiling, friendly and always greeted me “老师好”. I enjoyed the short conversations we've always had whenever I come by to buy your drinks. I grew up in DHS as a student buying drinks from your father, Uncle Ah Hee, and subsequently, from you. Thanks for always preparing all the wonderful, fun and interesting drinks for all the Dunman High population. I always ask, "今天有什么特别的好料“ and you'd give your recommendation. You're always game enough to let me try the different weird ways of mixing various drink and you're obliging to it. My favourite ended up ”咖啡加奶茶“。 Thank you for remembering my favourite, "Yuan Yang Nai Cha" and going beyond to mix the two drinks for me. I missed having that. Thank you for also having such trust in us, allowing us to 'put on credit' the drinks whenever we don't have the cash on hand, believing that we'd come by to return the credit. I will miss your cheerful, friendly smiles and the small conversations whenever I pass by. Your presence made a difference in all these years I'm here at DHS. You will be missed dearly.

一路走好。

# data[].attributes.body
hi uncle steven! it's been 3 years since i've seen you and little did i think that would be our last interaction.. the sheer number of posts on this padlet just comes to show the impact and influence on the dunmanians, both in the past and in generations to come. your legacy is going to live on.

thank you, for being one of the main reasons why i loved coming to school so much: getting to talk to you and hear about your stories, talking to you about my 心事 and just being able to be in the presence of pure joy and positivity. i know we always say that we come to you for drinks, but it's not an exaggeration to say that buying drinks became an experience for us. thank you for bringing so much light and laughter into our lives. uncle steven, i hope you are proud of us, please watch us and take care of us from above. most importantly, take care of yourself.

you are so very loved. 一路好走 ❤️🕊️

Uncle 没想到毕业那一年竟是最后一次见到你。我总想着等我回德明，一定会和你叙叙旧，聊聊彼此的近况。感谢你每次都记得我要点什么，每次我路过你的摊位前都会和我打招呼，没带钱的时候你总会和我说先把饮料拿去喝。在德明6年，您就像每一个学生的家人一样。毕业已经7年了，还是能想起你的笑容。一日德明人，一生的德明情！感谢你为我们这么多年的付出。一路走好！！！！

hi uncle,

Thanks for always being around even when its late to serve us drinks. Your smile and enthusiasm always lifts our spirits up whenever we're feeling down and the dunman high experience would never be complete without you. It's been awhile since I went back and I wished that I could have visited your stall more often. I still remember the times of ordering the off the menu items like a stupiak or a oreo milkshake and how I had to order ice in bulk from you to set up the ice bath for my track team. Thank you for the memories and serving me mogu mogus for 6 years. Rest in peace and I hope that you're in a better place now.

# data[].attributes.body
hi uncle, thank you for all the warmth u have shown us all all these years. everytime i return to dunman high, u would always wave at me and ask if i was back for cca again. hope that you are in a better place.

# data[].attributes.body
Hey uncle,

My memory's not the best but i'll always remember your smile as you greet us. Your drinks were awesome! I also remember you keeping the stall open until 8pm or so for the senior high students doing night study. I was hoping that i could still say hi to you when i had the chance the go back to dhs, but things rarely turn out the way it's planned. Rest in peace, and God bless :')

# data[].attributes.body
i think a bunch of us dunmanians who study in the canteen after school all tend to sit near uncle’s drink stall. there’s just something about feeling the good energy there and that the lights are there to accompany you till 7+pm at night. i dont frequent the drink stall as much as everyone else does but the impact that uncle steven has on everyone is just so profound. rest in peace uncle, thank you for accompanying us in the canteen till the lights went out. 🕊️🤍

hello uncle steven,

it’s been a few years since i graduated from

dunman high but i still remember your warm greetings and bright smile every time i enter the canteen :) from hectic recesses to quiet nights studying late in school, you’ve always been there, and i hope you know how big of an impact you’ve had on so many of our lives <3 you ran the best drink store ever and even when i reminisce about school with my friends, we always talk about your milo peng, or the nonsense drinks created like “genius” and “stupid”. you were such a fond memory of my school life, working hard every day, but i hope you’re resting well now. rest in peace uncle steven! you are definitely dearly missed :”)

# data[].attributes.body
hello uncle!!

thank you for making the 6 years in my life in DHS so memorable :) you were the friendliest and kindest uncle i've ever met, always taking the time to talk to each one of us personally, joking with us and just showering us with love daily. i always remember you talking to us after CCAs and entertaining all our crazy antics together with your wife as well. you have never once failed to put a smile on my face everytime i come to school because of how contagious your smile and laughter is 🤍

i will miss you dearly :'

# data[].attributes.body
Hello uncle!

It’s so unbelievable that you have left us… I always go to your stall to buy douhua and it has accompanied me throughout my DHS journey, and always get a drink whenever I’m feeling down or happy. Your drinks really accompanied me in my 6 years journey. Will never forget the days.. rest in peace

# data[].attributes.body
hi uncle, its crazy to me that you wont be there anymore when i go back 😭 that the dhs i know wont be as familiar as i remember it anym… rip, i feel the loss profoundly and you were a indispensible part of my 6 years at dhs

# data[].attributes.body
hello uncle!

thank you for always being so friendly, cheerful and smiley, always asking me about scouts and exams and making the best ice milo and shakes. you were always so patient with me helping me decide what snacks i should get even though i take a really long time to decide and the $1 oatsides brought me through my SH journey. rest easy uncle and thank you for everything, you will forever be remembered by many generations of dunmanians. 🫶

thank you uncle steven for being a staple during our dhs days. your 50 cents milo had ushered us through many years of schooling. and continues as a reminder that the small acts in life create huge impacts. thank you for all the memories you’ve created for us. rest in peace.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Uncle,

Thank you so much for everything… You were one of the best people of dhs. You never failed to smile and it was always so comforting to see your stall still open when we end trainings. Even when I didn’t have enough cash, you were always so nice to let me pay you back the next time.

Hope you rest well, and just know, that everyone at dhs will never forget you.

hello uncle 你好， 我已经毕业一阵子了，可惜这段时间也还没回德明，但我始终会记得当年在读书的时候，下课或 cca 之后去你店买水和跟你开玩笑。视为小小的举动也给我留下了很深刻的印象。一日德明人，一生德明情 hor， 这种情是用钱买不来的。谢谢你，一路好走。

# data[].attributes.body
thank you for providing me with the little things i looked forward to in dunman :) i remember you and your lovely smile and joyous attitude. i might not have been in the school for long but i can’t forget the people who made our daily lives there just a bit better. the Lord will be with you always.

Bro Steven,

你太年轻了，我不能叫你 Uncle。你的父亲才是我的 Drink Stall Uncle。当年我们借用你的父亲的摊位“藏”篮球，现在我的孩子也一样，对吧？

我常回家走走，有机会时都会到食堂跟你父亲和 Aunty Mary 打招呼。很难想象时隔三十多年，我们家两代人有着这样的一份缘。

昨夜在你的灵堂前，有无数的在籍学生和校友，单是我认识的篮球员就有十位以上。我跟你不熟，昨晚到灵堂除了是陪孩子去送你最后一程，也是想給我的 Drink Stall Uncle 一份微不足道的慰藉。没想到，你让我上了宝贵的一堂课。。。。

遗爱人间。。。。

感谢你在我的孩子们的成长过程中留下足迹，正如你的父亲在我的一样。一杯廉价的饮料，装的是无限的关爱。

Steven，一路走好。。。。

Uncle，请节哀，Steven 是您的骄傲！

德明人，1989 年毕业于德明路旧校舍

Hi Uncle, though I haven't interacted with you that much, you're still one of the first things we as dunmanian alumnus think of when we think of our time in DHS. Your high energy, smiles and banter will always be something we remember. Hope you rest in peace and thank you for the memories! 😢

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Uncle,

Thank you for always being a ray of sunshine for us dunmanians in school! I always looked forward to my fave milo bing and our little conversations because you make each of us feel special — by somehow remembering what’s going on in each of our lives. It always felt nice to go to ur shop after air weapons training and you’d ask training 刚完啊? Or when we stay late for SC and u tell us to jiayou 😢😢 Stall 16 was always my comfort place even after i graduated and came back to visit. Thank you uncle for being like our guardian angel during our 6 years in dunman and even after we graduated. 一路好走!

Love, a Year 10

# data[].attributes.body
hi uncle, i didnt make much memories with you but i know that you were always super nice to every single student no matter who it was. i’ll definitely miss seeing you and your dad at the drink stall, and rest in peace uncle.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear uncle,

I remember you helping to fill my bottle with drinks and charging 50c for it even though I told you that I should be paying more for it. You used to open until very late for the students who stayed back, and you would also remember stuff like our CCAs and if we have siblings also in DHS, which is amazing. Thank you for bringing joy and great drinks to every Dunmanian!

I cannot imagine the amount of grief your family and your dad, who has also been such a staple in every Dunmanian's life together with you, must be feeling right now. I hope that they are and remain in good health, and that you are happy up there with maybe lots of drinks for yourself now :)

# data[].attributes.body
Uncle,

一日德明人，一生德明情。一路好走, I really appreciate all the small conversations we had, it may not be long or deep, but you always seem to remember each of our stories like we were your kids. I hope you are you in a better place, just like how you and your drinks store always made our day slightly better!

It was sad I never got to visit dunman again after covid before you left… it won’t be the same.

(hehe thanks uncle for always letting me get my drink now matter how late I was running and how long the queue was 😅😅😅)

# data[].attributes.body
Uncle always had a smile on his face when he was selling his drinks every time I visited him during my schooling days, and this was no different when I visited as an alumnus. Milo, matcha latte, milk tea, soya beancurd, you name it, he most probably has it

I am greatly saddened that we have lost a deeply cherished part of many of our schooling lives. Thank you for all that you've done uncle ❤️

Dear uncle,

Thank you so much for bringing such joy to every dunmanian’s life, fromallowing us to use your fridge to making small talk with everyone. You never fail to brighten up our day whether it’s early in the morning or late at night after CCA.

I will always remember coming to you for coffee every single morning at 650am back when I was Year 6 and you would automatically pour a cup for me. That brought so much joy in my half-awaken state.

Sad that I never got the chance to come back and say hi again, wish I could. Rest well and we may just see each other in our next one!

hello uncle,

i remember when i first came back to dhs as an alumni, and the first thing i told my friends were "aiya the drink store uncle wont rmb me one". boy was i wrong.

i dont know how you do it, but i remember my mood lifting everytime i went to buy a drink from you. the small convos you had with each and every single one of us made us feel special, and was truly an integral part of dhs.

thank you for all your years of cheering us up and encouraging us. you may have left suddenly, but your presence will remain with the school.

一路走好🙏🏽

# data[].attributes.body
hey uncle, you probably don't remember me but I sure will never forget about you. I am a year 11 now, but I can still clearly remember the drinks you sell since year 1. From having pearls to nata to Oreo shake, etc... my favourite drink was peach tea + nata... thank you for always being so friendly to us and putting on a smile... You have no idea how much you and your dad's drink store meant to us. Rest well uncle...

dearest uncle, thank you for greeting us everyday with your best smile and being a core dhs memory for many of us. you have been our source of support, cheering us on especially when the days get tiring and our souls get weary. may you rest in peace, knowing that you have made a palpable impact on many of our lives.

dear uncle steven,

than you for being such a big part of the 3 years of my dhs life that i have known you for. thank you for making the effort to greet every single student with the brightest smile and making the effort to really care, i remember mentioning my name one time to you in y1 and you remembered it all the way to y3 and you always called me by my name. you really cared and took the effort to remember whatever i told you, who were my best friends, who i didn’t like when i used to over share in y1. i’m grateful to have met someone like you, and you mean so much to all the dunmanians. rest in peace uncle steven, i will always remember you and your dad in stall 16

# data[].attributes.body
I graduated in 2019 and I remember so vividly how Uncle would cheerfully get to know every single student despite the busy-ness of the recess and lunch crowd! No matter how busy it gets, he always greeted each student with the widest smile and was so kind to everyone. He also took an effort to get to know us, and even asked us about our days. After long volleyball trainings, and even before competitions, Uncle would always tell us to Jiayous and cheer us on! His light shines so bright and has such a deep impact on each of our hearts

# data[].attributes.body
dear uncle,

thank you for serving us for so long. i've been a dunmanian for only a short period of time but you've been a vibrant part of my school life. the drinks stall was always a place where i frequented, and you would always be so friendly and welcoming. thank you for dedicating your time to dunman high. rest in peace 🤍

hello uncle. i will always miss you. From your oreo milos to your sjoras where inspired me to make sjora my entire personality. you were always so kind and generous, you were the only uncle in the entire canteen every time when i forget to bring my wallet down you would always let me off the hook and allow me to pay next time or even when im short of 20c you would let me off and you would pay for me. everytime i come in the morning i would see the brightest smile ever greeting me with either 帅哥 or 老板好。it was a small compliment but looking back it made me smile everyday hearing a compliment everyday from the same person. and everytime after my cca you would allow me to refill ice from your stall specially reserved for me which i appreciated soso much <3. I remember that one time after my Cca it was very late and your stall was closing but you actually opened up your stall again to get me a cup of sjora. thank you uncle i will forever miss whatever you have done for me and your store and yourself will always have a special place in my heart. thank you uncle.

Dear uncle,

I will always remember how the drink store is always open when I arrive in school for meetings at the canteen at 6.40 in the morning. Without fail, I will always be able to pick up an ice green tea to start my morning right.

Beyond the comfort from the drinks you prepare, it’s always so heartwarming to be greeted by you in an energetic and cheerful tone in the morning. You never fail to make mornings more bearable for me.

Thank you for also being so gracious and entering our requests to borrow your fridge whenever we need to store items. You were always part of our birthday surprises and I can’t imagine what the canteen will be without you!

RIP Uncle and may you be remembered forever 🕊️

亲爱的 uncle,

谢谢你这六年让我们用你的冰箱放蛋糕，让我们躲在你摊后面给朋友惊喜，无时无刻都和我们一起庆祝。现在想起才明白，只有最善良，最真心爱学生的成年人不会嫌弃这样的举动，开心地让给我们你的空间这么调皮地用

看到了很多次，学生不够零钱的时候你都笑着说 “it’s ok never mind” 或 “改次才还”，从来没抱怨过而一直相信我们。

很开心你的摊位是食堂第一个摊位，一走进食堂就能看到你的笑容，是一种温暖的幸福。毕业后也回去了两三次，看都你一样的笑容，就像在欢迎我回到学校一样。想对你说，在你生病痛苦的时候还能有着这么灿烂的笑容，是一个多么勇敢的事。我永远会感激遇到了你多么充满爱心的人🤍

永远记住你的笑容，

fruit punch + nata de coco 少冰

ice milo

meiji chocolate milk (吸管记得拿)

[我这六年来从你那边一直买的饮料]

一路走好🤍🌟

# data[].attributes.body
hallo uncle!

记得我没次每次到Stall 16那边买水的时候，都是这样称呼你。毕业前这样，毕业后也如此。

记得疫情期间，我趁着大学还没开始时，偷偷地回到学校来探望大家一面。记得当时，在口罩的掩护下，老师大多数的不怎么认得我了，而你还清晰记得我的样子，记得我已经毕业了，还记得问了我最近还过得怎样。

转眼间，四年过去了，我也正好刚从大学毕业。本来想和以前一样，回去德明探望各位老师，还有那些当年和我在食堂里有说有笑的Uncle Aunty，其中也当然包括了你在內。只可惜，最后一次遇见你的时候，也只能停止在4年前了。

既然说不了再见，就感谢你，曾经让我感受到Oreo Shake是多么的好喝 ；谢谢你，给予我勇气，在我高中时期喝了第一罐咖啡；谢谢你，在我不经意落下我婴儿时期的照片后，帮我收了起来，还把它还给我。

谢谢你，在我们庆祝生日的时候，让我们用你的冰箱，能和同学度过我们这生中最难忘的时光； 谢谢你，在我的学生时代里，以你灿烂的笑容点亮了我们最暗沉的时光；谢谢你，成了我们在德明学习不可缺少的一部分。

这是最后一次跟你道谢，也可惜，这份感谢之情，不能传到你耳边。

谢谢Uncle，一路走好。

dear uncle steven,

this hurts a lot to write as i lost my grandfather a few months back. thank you for making me feel accepted and welcomed. despite knowing you for such a short time, i could tell that you had a heart of gold. you made the effort to recognise your regular customers, and it took u just a few weeks to recognise me. none of the other staff in school has been able to make me feel as accepted as you did. maybe you didnt know that i was a jae student, but i wish i could tell you how much your service has made an impact to my life in dhs. enjoy heaven, you deserve all the good things there, protect your beloved family from up above. 有缘再见

i have so many thoughts that i don’t know what to say. thank you for all the cups of milk tea you made for me over the 6 years. i always dreaded going to school but you were that constant bright light :) you’re so dearly missed. i never thought the last time i saw you would’ve been 5 years ago. i’ll be finding you in the brightest star 🤍
