You were such a brave, kind, fun and beautiful girl. You will always be in our hearts and we will always miss you.

I feel so honored to have been able to get to know Queenie and her family. and to be a part of her care team.  What an incredibly bright, sweet, kind and caring young lady who showed such strength and grace during a difficult fight.  Knowing her parents, it is no surprise that Queenie turned out to be such an incredible human being. Coco and Xuan, you are a true inspiration. Your selflessness advocacy for Queenie was an amazing thing to witness.  It was such a pleasure to work with you....you are absolutely amazing parents.  I cannot put in words how sorry I am for your loss. Thank you for allowing me and the rest of our team to be a part of Queenie's journey.

We are deeply saddened to hear about the loss of Queenie, our beloved family friend. We have known Queenie since she was a little baby, and she was like our own daughter. Queenie was incredibly talented in many aspects. She excelled at school and was drafted to Bellevue's Advanced Learning Program. She was a natural athlete, winning medals at swim meets from a young age. In her quiet moments, Queenie enjoyed reading, listening to music, singing along, and had a great time hanging out with friends. Queenie was not only thoughtful, loving, and gentle but also incredibly brave. At the age of 10, she courageously jumped into an ice-cold river to save her brother's life when he fell into the water from a steep snow slope. Throughout her illness, Queenie demonstrated incredible strength, fighting tirelessly against her illness. May Queenie rest in peace in Heaven and watch over her loved ones. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during this challenging time.

Queenie, I will always remember you as the amazing, smart, kind, playful, funny, and stunning person you were. You had a smile that could light up the world and a laugh so contagious and carefree that it would instantly make the people around you happier. 

Hiking with you while talking about the most random things. Eating s'mores by the campfire with the stars shining above while camping. Watching movies together during family friend meetings. It hurts to think that I will no longer be able to make these memories with you, but I will cherish the ones we have dearly.

It feels so unfair that someone so talented, so incredible, so lovely as you would be taken from us this early. You were alwaus so supportive, kind, and open with everyone around you. 
Thank you for all you've done for us. We'll miss you so much.

I remember you were always so bright and cheerful during family gatherings. I feel like it was just yesterday when we were last together, yet time passes too fast and a year has come in gone in the blink of an eye. 

It's so unfair that someone as talented, kind, and clever as you has to leave so early but the memories you left behind will be cherished and remembered forever. Fly high, Queenie, we all miss you.

Queenie, it’s impossible to express how amazing, thoughtful, talented, smart, and pretty you were, and it truly hurts that we can only see you through memories now, that no one else will know you like we do. It’s hard to know that my first friend, one of my closest friends ever, will no longer walk down the same path as me. You were truly a special and stunning person, and all who knew you loved you greatly and looked up to you, for your contagious cheerfulness, bright smile, infectious laughter, and bold personality. We miss you so much. You will always be remembered in our hearts and memories, the late night sleepovers of whispering and gossiping, the long play dates and road trips to beautiful national parks and cities, and the exhausting, exhilarating, fulfilling hikes that we conquered together.

Dear Queenie, 

You left a footprint in this world in your 15 years of beautiful life.  We will always remember you are a happy, brave, caring, and sensible little girl.

This is way too hard, for us to see the falling of such a promising star, with so much that could have been achieved with her talent, perseverance, confidence, and a beautiful heart. But all was interrupted abruptly on this day, October 25th 2023. Endless love from family, friends, and caring doctors could not deliver a miracle; she has fought hard too, we are all proud of you! 

You will be dearly missed, for the crackling campfire at the Windy point that kept us warm, for the ice popsicles we made together on the Skyline trail, for the shooting stars that inspired us in Banff’s pristine night sky, for your powerful waves that splashes many swimming pool lanes in the competition season, for your smiles, tears, silliness, and everything that will live on in our memories.

To the  parents of Queenie LI, sincerest condolences.    May you find comfort in knowing that your grief is shared by all who knew Queenie.    Losing a loved one in death is extremely traumatic, but moreso when the person is a young vibrant teenager.   How sad you must feel.   But picture  her alive and happy  - that's the promise recorded at John 5:28,29 - a grand resurrection of our loved ones..   So  look forward to the fulfilment of God's promises recorded in his word   knowing that they will become a reality very soon.  Once again sincerest condolences.   Regards.  Yvette
