Dear Cora,

Welcome to the Quon family!

It's one day till Lori's birthday and one day and two weeks till your and Deron's wedding. I'm making Friday the 13th auspicious by making good on Lori's plea for a collection of Quon lore and memorabilia as a wedding present for you.  

So here you go, and may you enjoy this site - or at least find it a handy reference to at least of some of what you're stepping into.

With love and all my heartfelt wishes that you and Deron have many years of happiness and health together.

Your new cousin,

Dede

And now, a request to everyone of Quon and Ho lineage:  

Please do your bit!  This site will only fully come alive when you add your wedding wishes to the bridal couple, or contribute additional stories or photos that I can upload.

Lori - This will have to be your birthday present too!
Auntie Elsie - Hope this site reads well on your iPad. Another shout-out for your fabu Philippine fabric, which looks so great on the girls as pictured above.
Diana - It's mostly your photos that have started off this site; I have more to add, but gots to scan them first!

Dede - You've cooked up something far more yummy than a casserole! Not only a gift to Deron and Cora, but a treasure for the entire family. Many, many thanks!!!

Hi Dede: I just wrote a long email message to you in the contributions section. I didn't realize you were the amazing historian that put this whole thing together. I'm doing a documentary on Li Ling-Ai and the long lost 1941 Oscar Winning film on China she helped to produce called KUKAN. see http://findingkukan.com for more info. I'd love to talk with you to find out more about the Quons connection to the Lis and how they might fit into the story. aloha, Robin

hi Dede - Been trying to find info about the Quon-Quon business itself. Was it located at 843 Los Angeles Street? I have been searching for a photo of the building exterior, but no luck. It's where my parents met in 1951! Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated. best regards, Dan

I met Albert Quon once when USC nominated me to be a recipient of scholarship he funded. After teaching in Hong Kong I visited his office to express my gratitude via his son. I’m now 77 and am pleased to find this Website!

    That would be me, Dede, a Quon on my mother's side.
