| Chebao: This is to let all know that 謝財豐 (Shieh Tasi-Fon) lives in Denver, Colorado, USA, the same town where I have lived over the past 27 years (Note: after my retirement from the U.S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division, in Denver in 2006, I came back to Taiwan as a Chair Professor with the Department of Environmental Engineering, National Cheng Kung University. However, I still keep my home in Denver). 謝財豐 and his family have been in Denver for some 25+ years. In Denver, 謝財豐 is not only my high- school classmate and an old-time friend from Miaoli, he and his wife are our closest family friends. This is because his wife and my wife both also worked for the U.S. Postal Office in Denver. 謝財豐 and his wife have a bright son (now a surgent) and a bright daughter (a business major), both being well educated in the U.S. 謝財豐 had a very good memory of the high-school activities that he enjoyed recapturing these old events and stories with me. Things about the Hsin-Chu High School have always been the most favorite subject of his life. About 5 years ago, it was very unfortunate that 謝財 豐 had a serious accident when taking a walk alone in his neighborhood. He apparently fell backward with his head hitting the ground (as no one saw how itexactly happened) when he was tripped by something, as his wife speculated, that led thereafter to a serious damage of his brain. Despite a good surgery, he lost a lot of physical strength and mental capacity after this accident. He is now still recovering, though very slowly, and requires a considerable assistance in daily living. During the last 5 years, I and my wife have been so much touched by the care extended to ??? by his wife. What a close tie between their hearts as husband and wife! Let us all here pray for 謝財豐's recovery. Cary T. Chiou (邱成财) |

| 偉宗弟: I would not surprise that he talked to your wife. He is a talker, endless talker and called everywhere in the world. He may just hibernate in somewhere now. We may have to wait until“his weather warming up.”If I hear anything about him before the event naturally you and CheBo will be notified accordingly. I just step in from Harrisburg, state capital of Pennsylvania, where I have short meeting with my friend state representative Scott whom is running for Lieutenant Governor this November. Your hunting work should be appreciated by many. With my best wishes and regards. Joe Hsieh |
| 淵泉師: I called 謝財豐's number (+1-720-842-4730) in Colorado but found the number either disconnected or non-existent. 九零年代末至二十一世紀初六年當中,我在台、 美創業,此期中 (即淵泉師與謝財豐有連繫之時) 謝財豐曾數次打電話來家裡 (不知他如何知我電 話號碼,但他是 Realtor 自應有其來源),有時我 在台灣他亦曾與我太太 Daisy 在電話中聊過。但 已有很久沒接過他電話。 Just now, I tried to do some Google search for "Issac Shieh"; however, nothing turned up. I tried. 偉宗 敬筆 |
