Dear all classmate,
 
Hope 雨田 is with God and at peace now! And appreciate a lot for the work of 开景,谢乐等。

I am currently participating in the support for advanced biomedical research in personalized medicine, 
early cancer detection, and pervasive clinical trials data collection and massive data mining for 
discovery of Gene-based non-invasive cancer therapy.

Wish we will have some good progress in this critical area soon to improve human health and quality of 
life dramatically.

Best,
Steve

我剛從嚴玉田的追思禮拜回來,在此跟不及來參加的老同學簡單報導.

追思禮拜在台北信義區的藝人之家舉行,約兩百個座位坐滿了親朋好友.電機系的老同學來了
詹益光,伍道沅,龍偉業,鄭守成,何友蘭和我.教會禮堂前面擺放了鮮花花圈和照片,清新肅穆,
還有幻燈陸續投影嚴雨田中學和以後他和親友的生活旅遊照片.禮拜過程有牧師禱告,讀經,
親友致詞,詩班和一同唱詩.同學好友趙寄蓉生動的描述雨田中學時代才藝表現,多彩生命和跟
癌症奮鬥以及堅毅完成回憶錄的過程.摯友David Allan(他協助編輯和出版回憶錄英文書)
也在熱淚揮灑中敘訴與雨田的友誼,他誠懇特立的個性,和對人生獨有的態度和哲學,並引述
聖經的人物故事相印.雨田大弟力山隔洋送來的錄音,娓娓道來追思兄弟手足一生的真情和雨田
對宗教尋覓的長久過程,終於在最後的時日親友的愛護交心之下接受神的愛,而能面對死亡
不再畏懼,平靜釋放我執,在眾多親友的關懷中離開.他表達深誠感謝親友的支持愛心,最後
雨田兒子對父親感性的佩服感恩和大聲中文唸出雨田最後對兒子口述向親朋好友的感恩及
平和離世歸天的心境尤為感人!

中文回憶錄也在趙寄蓉大力幫助下印出了100本,內有好友同學李光焘,祝開景和鄭志良的序
文,禮拜結束後當場發送完畢.

雨田去世前一天我跟趙寄蓉去安寧病房看他.那時他已經虛弱得不能開口說,我們跟他說話,
趙寄蓉告訴他英文回憶錄已經出版發售了,中文版他也會立即付印分送親友,他聽了很高興,
似乎想說什麼,寄蓉問他是否想對親友說感謝,他閉著眼微微點頭.看得出他心中是滿足平靜
的.來了一位年輕的護士,那裏的護士醫生都看過雨田的回憶錄,感動於他跟癌症的多年奮鬥
不懈,更因對他的人生了解而產生了感情,知道他隨時會離世,一面幫雨田按摩減痛,還問他
”嚴爺爺,我愛你,可不可以抱抱你”,雨田閉著眼點點頭,護士抱抱他,也要雨田兒子過來抱他,
我也同時摸摸他.雨田雖然受了許多身體病痛,但是充滿福報的在許多人的關愛下度過臨終的時刻.

開景兄長;
非常謝謝你一直為同學們熱心服務,聯絡.
我剛讀完 雨田學兄中文回憶錄第一章, 心中感慨萬千, 真希望我現在在 台灣 與他 的親友
一同記念他.
在我印象中他是一位 勇敢, 堅強, 不虛假, 為真理不斷追求的老同 學.
雨田兄己離開 我們 了, 當年在台大的歡樂熱鬧只留在腦海中.

我引用聖經最感動人的一個應許安慰雨田兄的家人與親友;
啟示錄廾一章:
, 
3 我 聽 見 有 大 聲 音 從 寶 座 出 來 說 : 看 哪 , 神 的 帳 幕 在 人 間 。 他 要 與 人 同 住 , 
  他 們 要 作 他 的 子 民 。 神 要 親 自 與 他 們 同 在 , 作 他 們 的 神 。
4 神 要 擦 去 他 們 一 切 的 眼 淚 ; 不 再 有 死 亡 , 也 不 再 有 悲 哀 、 哭 號 、 疼 痛 ,
   因 為 以 前 的 事 都 過 去 了 。
5 坐 寶 座 的 說 : 看 哪 , 我 將 一 切 都 更 新 了 ! 又 說 : 你 要 寫 上 ; 因 這 些 話 
  是 可 信 的 , 是 真 實 的 。

Hi, 開景,
In memory of Rainfield, I wrote a poem below to share with our classmates:

A Burning Soul
(In memory of Rainfield)
Bing Chang

Life was the plateau of the rock beyond the chasm.
He Jumped at it.
Life was the sharp turn on a high-speed motor cycle.
He dared it.
Life was the testing of boundary.
He poked it.
Life was the exploration of sensuous joy.
He indulged it. 
Life was the cynicism of hypocrisy.
He detested it.
Life was the dream of relentless pursuits.
He dreamt it.
Life was the achievement of learning.
He earned it.
Life was the acquiring of erudition.
He scored it.
Life was the fighting of illness.
He journeyed it.
Life was the deciphering of enigma.
He reasoned it.
Life was life.
He faced it.

Regards, Bing Chang

Subject: Re: We all miss Rainfield

他走的前一天,隔着電話我告訴他我已經看完了並會告訴我先生也下載下來,他雖然當時戴着氧氣罩但他還努力的回應我「好」,
我可以感覺到他對我們看他生前寫的his last breath這事是多麼的在乎,我知道他如果知道我們都有看也算是繼續記念他的
方式,以他的個性我知道他一定是會很高興的。這4年多以來自從他生病後,他常常提到他很害怕死亡,每天活在提心吊膽中害怕
那一天的到來,但2周前,我上台北去看他時他已跟我說他對死亡已經不害怕了並且希望早點解脫因為身體拖着下去他只剩下辛苦
更辛苦。能夠在走前說出這樣的話並勇敢的面對和接受也算是上帝給他的福氣。所以我相信他走的時是很安詳的。想到我還是不禁
的感到悲痛難過。我深深體會到失去親人是最悲痛的事,我相信此刻希格的心情也是。希望我弟弟也可以得到大家的安慰。我求神
帶領嚴爸讓他安息一路好走,rest In peace並回到神的旁邊,過着如神仙般生活。

奉主耶穌的名像天上的神祈求,may ever know pray for him: Please have Rainfield rest in peace and already 
meet God in heaven 阿門!

在此也謝謝各位陪伴他的叔叔和書漢。Rainfield is not alone , 他比擁有家人的人還擁有的更多。I will forever 
miss him and memory him in my heart.

Kingsman Yen  於 2013/12/23 上午10:51 寫道:

We all appreciate that 書漢 and Seigfo were close by his side for that moment.  Rainfield had 
always been afraid that he would be alone at the end.  But in his final days, he was showered 
with so many caring friends around him.  He must have been resting in peace feeling the love 
all around. 

We, the siblings of Rainfield, could not have made it through without all of your support 
throughout the whole journey where many of the encounters with Rainfield were honestly quite 
depressing.  Your understanding and lasting support demonstrated the meaning of true friends.

Peaceful with appreciations,

Kingsman

I have the same feelings…there is a deep sadness with the loss of Rainfield- one of a kind who leaves his unique mark on all 
who crossed his path. 

Thank you again, to all of you, who were our hands, feet, voices of comfort and warm faces to Rainfield, for those of us who 
have been too far away.   I want to say again, how honored I feel to have been a part of this thread, this group of carers of Rainfield.  Thank you for being there for my uncle, and for demonstrating to him, in so many different ways, that he was a man who was loved.

Subject: He will be missed

Dear all,

It was sad to hear the passing of Rainfield. One day in November I assured him that God would give him enough time to finish his 
memoir and God did keep His promise. And it was incredible that Rainfield also honored his end of the bargain. When final day came 
near him, he accepted it with peace. I have no doubt that he is with God in heaven now.

What a talented guy Rainfield was! He was also an inspiring professor,  a loving family member, a great friend to have, and an 
incredible writer as he showed us in his beautiful written memoir. He will be missed.

Johnny

P.s. Thank you David for making Rainfield's memoir available to all of us. Several of my friends are already touched by reading it.

I received with sadness the news of Rainfield's passing, and I am thankful that he left behind this memoir as a record of his life, 
his family, and his friendships for everyone to remember him by.

The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises.
The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course.
All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again.

Hi Classmates,

I had an opportunity to visit Rainfield at Veterans General on Nov.28 with 謝樂 and 趙寄蓉 .  Rainfield told us then he knew it's his last days. 
Yet he was very calm and peaceful.  As I mentioned to Lo and Peter afterwards, Rainfield is a brave and respectful man.  He did it his way, a 
many splendid way!  God bless him.

It is so sad to hear the passing of a friend, an amazing man of intelligence having lived a full life of his passions and a resolute fighter.  
His memoir reflects his incredible literary skills.  It could be a script for a movie.  His corporal body is gone, but the great soul lives.

Thank you for all the timely and insight report, reading your email is as if we were there in person. 
Knowing Rainfield’s condition, I called him last night, he could not talk, but Macy was able to put the phone 
on his ear for me to tell him good bye.
Again, thanks for your timely information. We would not know much without you.

Subject: The Current Status of Rainfield

Dear All:
 
Left the hospice ward at the Veteran General Hospital at 11:30 a.m. this morning, the 21st.  Bedies Seigfo, Peter Chao and Loh 
Hsieh were also there.
 
Since last night, oxygen has been used to ease his breath.  He is very weak, but, still tried his very best to open his eyes to 
greet us.  We checked with the nurses and were advised that, based on their experience, the moment could be as soon as this 
weekend that Rainfield would bid his farewell to all of us.  Having talked with Seigfo, I believe that the next message would 
be coming from him.
 
I checked with Seigfo to make sure that Rainfield is aware of the fact that the book had already been published on-line.  When 
I talked with Rainfield, before I left his ward this morning, I mentioned that the book had already been published and I could 
see his sense of accomplishment through a little grin on his face.
 
Knowing his long fight against an extremely vicious cancer, all doctors and nurses at the hospice ward are taking good care of 
him with love and tender care.  While we were there, one of the nurses gave him a tender hug with tears in her eyes.  We could 
all see that Rainfield changed his facial expression from a slightly painful look into a very relaxed and fatherly one.  Those 
nurses all address Rainfield as Grandpa.
 
You may all be assured that Rainfield feels very much at peace with himself now.
 
Cordial regards,
Tom
