We Say Goodbye to Ang Booy


We finally had to say Good-bye to Ang Booy. With many hugs we had to let her go. Ang has been out in Cambodia with YWAM for about 6 months and her program has finally come to a close. So now it is time for her to go back to Canada to meet family and friends back in Abbotsford.
While Ang was in Phnom Penh, she spent most of those Weekends at our place. Maya was especially excited to know that "Miss Ang Booy" was coming over for the weekend and Maya would usually squeel and giggle when we told her it was Friday. Ang came over Friday night and we usually dropped her off on late Sunday afternoon back at her YWAM base building. Ang was easy going and when it came to where we needed to go on a Saturday, she was very accommodating to our plans. On Sundays she just came to whatever church we were going to that morning. Later on most Sundays we would just drop her off in time for her Sunday dinner at the base.
In the middle of her time in Cambodia she ended up going to India for a while, but within an hour of returning to Cambodia and then landing on the ground from her trip, she called us to come over to stay at our place. NOW THAT is dedication!

Regardless, we will all miss, Miss Ang Booy. We wish her the Lord's blessing as she gets back into the Canadian lifestyle again.

With Love,
The Weiss Family

The package you see her carrying is for Sureyah, as Ang agreed to bring it over to him. It is a little something to help him remember Cambodia from Dan Hein and Dean. When you see Ang you will have to ask her WHAT we made her carry!
