NJC track team's tribute to Stephen Loh

This poem was read by teacher Stephen Loh's younger brother, Gideon at the end of his tribute.

Just as the mist it rises


Then vanishes way down the stream


Mr Loh too has come and then left us


Today it seems like a dream


That he was so much part of our lives


That he lived and loved as we do


Like the fish that a fisherman threw


Back in the stream to go on its way


And that is what he is doing today


To a bright new world, see the sun glitter


As he drifts from sight, though our tears are bitter


We know that he, like the salmon's leap


Will always be there in our memories deep.
