I am proud of her

Although not knowing her in person except in Facebook,
I am really proud of my friend's eldest sister, Sandra Wong.
She still helped others even after she had passed away by donating her cornea and marrow.

MALACCA: She loved to make others happy. Despite passing on, she is still spreading some sunshine as her cornea and marrow have been harvested to benefit those who need them,

Bubbly 21-year-old Sandra Wong May (pic) from Melaka Baru died of serious injuries after a collision between the Proton Saga she was in and another car here at about 3pm on Thursday.

Her father, Jimmy, a retired bank officer, is currently warded at the Malacca Hospital’s critical care unit while younger sister Clara, 16, escaped serious injuries.

Her mother Loh Soh Fay, 47, fulfilled Sandra’s wish to give away her organs.

“My daughter and I were very close.

“We spoke about donating our organs when we die,” said Loh at the Jelutong funeral parlour in Batu Beren dam yesterday.

Loh said she had almost forgotten about her daughter’s wish.

“It was in the state of deep grief that I suddenly remembered our conversation, and recalled her saying that she wanted to sign up as an organ donor,” she said.

In Sandra’s blog Joie De Vivre (The Joy of Living), the lass described how much she relished her daily life as a mass communications undergraduate at HELP University College in Kuala Lumpur.

Many of her close friends who came to pay their last respects said Sandra was a cheerful and bubbly person.

Many of her former schoolmates and college friends also posted their condolences on her blog upon learning of her death.

Sandra’s funeral ceremony is scheduled to take place at 2pm today.

Her remains will be cremated at the nearby Melaka Memorial Park in Sungai Putat.
