His charitable acts extended to the University Hospital of the West Indies (UHWI), where the haemodialysis unit, its staff, and patients were profoundly blessed by his presence and support. After more than a decade since his kidney transplant, Sir Sing returned to us as a patient. Despite the passage of time and the fact that most of us were new faces to him, he immediately felt like part of the family once again – a beloved member who had simply been away for a while and had now come home. Sir Sing quickly embraced the cherished morning fritters ritual on the ward. Each morning, patients – and sometimes staff – looked forward to enjoying crisply fried fritters purchased from the breakfast vendors on the hospital compound. It was during these moments that Sir Sing could be found engaging in lively conversations with everyone, young or old, patient or staff. His warmth and humility made these interactions memorable and meaningful for all who participated. The privilege of having such a humble soul among us has left an enduring legacy. Sir Sing’s presence fostered a sense of unity and camaraderie, reminding us all of the impact one individual can have through kindness and genuine connection. His presence brought warmth and camaraderie to the unit, making each day a little brighter for everyone. The simple joys he shared – be it a kind word, a hearty laugh, or a thoughtful gesture – reminded us of the importance of human connection. Though his time with us was all too brief, Sir Sing taught us to cherish the bonds we form and the memories we create together.
