Re: In Memoriam: Tog Tan
I have an email folder named tog tan, and I have kept all of our conversations. I like to read them from time to time. I was out of town when he passed away and didn't find out what had happened for a week after I got back because it took that long to get caught up. I miss my friend even though we never met and were just getting to understand each other, Tog was a complex person.
Michael

Too many candles have to be lit in this family. Still thinking of you, my friend.

Re: In Memoriam: Tog Tan
Tog was incredibly knowledgeable about bananas. I was envious that he was able to walk outside of his home and right into the jungle full of different banana varieties. He is missed and with him went vast amounts of knowledge.

Re: In Memoriam: Tog Tan
So many times, we see people who have so much to contribute, leave too early. Things are left unfinished, and we can only guess how they would want to be remembered.
I am making my own headstone to make sure they get it right. I know I am eccentric, but is that odd, even for me?

Re: In Memoriam: Tog Tan
I think about Tog pretty regularly and wish I had more time to enjoy our friendship. I also had hoped to go to the BK flower show with him sometime but have several other things I'd like to talk to him about.

Re: In Memoriam: Tog Tan
After so many years I finally made it to Kuala Lumpur. If would be so nice if I could do it many years ago to meet my friend Tog.
