A very fitting tribute from The Divine Ms D:
"Pinky Chan rocked. I never actually spoke to her in person because she scared the living shit out of me. But I wanted to. To me she was one of that rare breed of merciless alpha females, like Cleopatra, Dolly Parton or one of those praying mantises that bites off the male’s head.
"She spoke to me once. They were her first and last words to me. “Hey you. What are you smiling at?” she said, glaring suspiciously over a glass of wine outside the Spicy Island.
"What a fantastic woman."
I'm still looking for more tributes and memories of Pinky's life, in English or Chinese.
I've got quite a few good ones already, but need a few more from people who knew her now or in the last millennium in her former incarnations as "FCC regular", "Regional PR/advertising sales manager", "Married in Singapore", "Hippy Chick", :Crazy Landlady", "Banyan Cafe owner" and many more...
