In memory of

Jin Tao

January 29, 1962 -  July 26, 2016

Sometimes words just aren’t enough - this is one of those times. Truly, honestly, I don’t have the words to do him justice. But this is me trying. Humble yet brilliant, generous yet responsible, and loving yet beloved. Born in Tianjin, China, he had a humble childhood. Nevertheless, he grew into a tremendously intelligent man capable of the unimaginable. Whether he is developing some fancy software or cooking up a storm in the kitchen for the family, he constantly does everything to perfection and has a sharp eye for detail. I always said to him: If I could give you the world, I would; but the world isn’t enough. I guess that’s why God gave him heaven. To the man who is more than a teacher, a father, a husband, and a friend - to the man who changes lives - to the man who touches hearts - to the man who loves God - to the man who inspires his daughter to be a better person - to the man who drives his wife absolutely crazy (in the best way possible, of course) - to the man who his family deeply loves, always and forevermore: it's not goodbye. It's see you very soon. Love as always.

悼【陶津】吾友 (藏头诗)

陶府学子谦谦君,
津生随主步步寻。
吾闻兄去心欲碎,
友情谊深思长存。

Dearest Brother Tao Jin,

You are a person who can make people around you feel happy and safe. You are humorous, you are charismatic, you are a true leader who can always attract so many people who truly want to follow you.

You are such a talented person in so many ways: software developing, music, performance, cooking and so much more. Because of you, so many church events can be so educating and interesting.

You set a great example for us to be a true Christian by following bible teachings, loving Jesus Christ our lord, passing your sincere love and care to your sisters and brothers in the church, and giving immediate help to whoever needs help.

Knowing you for just five years, but all the times that we joined church's services together are so precious to me.

I know you are now in a most beautiful place with our Lord, Rest in peace!

May God continue to bless your dearest mother, wife and daughter!

Love,
Yang Bing

I'm so sad to have to think of this world without Jin. It has been such a privilege to know a man who combines such humour, so much intelligence and wisdom and kindness. But all of those are just qualities, they do nothing to describe this wonderful, wonderful man, nor how much he will be missed by me and, I think, everyone who has ever come to know him, even in the very least.
