A man who never raised his voice at his charges, but preferred to let his heart and head define his command. A can-do, positive spirit coupled with genuine humility and a desire to do things the way they should be done are the memories I will forever keep of Eu Jin.
Eu Jin was a real pleasure to work with - you just knew things would not go wrong with him around, and even if they did, you would want him there when they did - remember, he was only 19 then, with a head on his shoulders that belied his age. In my mind, this spoke highly of his parents, his upbringing and those who were privileged enough to love him.
I hope Kahlil's thoughtful epitaph helps us overcome, and treasure the memories we retain of Eu-Jin, for these memories will stay.
When you are sorrowful
look into your heart
and you shall see that
you are weeping
for that which has been
your delight
