    Editor’s Notes:

    • After retirement, Saya U Kyaw Myint relocated to Daly City, California, USA.
    • A few months ago, Saya lost his beloved spouse Dr. Daw Kyin Yee.
    • Since Daw Kyin Yee was a body donor, the last rites were performed in private.
    • The “La Lei Soon Kwyay” was offered a month later at Dhammananda Vihara, Half Moon Bay, California.
