A TRIBUTE
to Loved Ones Lost to the Khmer Rouge

"I miss you, Pa!" - Andrew C. Ang
"It
's actually a group photo with others, but luckily I can crop it to
this size. I think this was taken in 1970 as I can read what he wrote
at the back of the photo..."

In remembrance of Andrew Ang's oldest brother
"The
first week after the country fell, many uncles, aunties, cousins of
mine who were professionals and business people were taken by the Phnom
Penh authority and they never returned... My father was tortured in
front of me and subsequently died just a couple of months before the
liberation in 1979..."
As
his soul sailed beyond the horizon to touch the face of god, you'll be
comforted to learn that life on earth is just a train stop away from
eternity - Nikolas
"Well
said Nikolas! Man, you are going to make me cry... He [brother] is 12
years older than me, but we were very closed... he took me everywhere
with his Vespa and French car.... I can literally smell his cologne... I
remember as a young kid, I heard the same comment all the time about
him.... I always wanted to be as handsome as him..."
- Andrew C. Ang of Battambang now Sydney, Australia
